the trouble with sci-fi covers



















There are many beautiful geeks in my life and therefore a lot of sci-fi books. I always gape at the dreadful covers the majority of them wear. One exception is Penguin's current group of John Wyndham novels, which all have amazingly illustrated covers by Brian Cronin.

Perhaps I should recruit some wonderful illustrators and start a tasteful sci-fi cover company?

I've been watching your blog for a while, but have been a bit quiet to comment. But had to say... funny coincidence, I finally bought this book today myself online. I love John Wyndham's books. I've been reading my mum's old ones, but this one she didn't have. Can't wait to receive it!
