Marauders of Gor
Good Show Sir Comments: Acting on a tip, we wasted an afternoon browsing the visual excesses of John Norman book covers over at “The Complete John Norman“. So many editions, all terrible in their own way. But one edition had a special style of terrible that makes us sit back, doff our hat, and say “Good show sir, good show, indeed”. Here is the full set, we could have selected any of them for today’s post so I present a random threesome.
1. Asshat of Gor
2. Gonads of Gor
3. The Rotters of Gor

It’s a Two-fer Tuesday: Dominic Flandry Showcase
Good Show sir Comments:
1. Poul Anderson pulls a George R.R. Martin; kills off Flandry in a first chapter surprise!
2. Signet decides that putting Flandry’s face or name on the cover does not sell books.
Thanks to Charles for sending one in.
