Honestly, I thought that the guy was an alien. It was only when I read the description on Amazon that I learned that he’s a cowboy, that thing on his head is a HAT, apparently, and not the top of an alien-head-space-helmet, and those aren’t weird limbs, they’re chaps. Inexplicably worn while his shirt is off.
Should we tell them that bustles go in the BACK of the dress, rather than creating a shelf on the front of the dress, upon which the alien cowboy would rest his hand?
On a bright note, from reading the comments/reviews on Amazon, it seems that the cover and the content are at least, if naught else, well-matched.
Are you sure about the man and woman? I see a two-faced, one-headed, poorly dressed blob. I see nothing to indicate (to a reasonable and lazy person such as myself) that this is anything other than an alien or monster.

I thought this was a joke cover from 1962. Nope. It’s a 2015 release. I read the reviews and agree – they are clearly well-matched in their respective competency!

If anybody comes here again saying “you shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover” he should be pointed to this book (after being slapped silly).
Dymond publishing? I couldn’t find their web page so I assume they don’t have a reason to be concerned about SEO since they don’t have a web presence, but that’s a terrible name to goggle. Goggle will assume you’ve misspelled it and search for diamond instead.
Woah, a five-tagger! We don’t often see covers that ping *that* many of your tags.
I think it would be pretty interesting to see a histogram of all the titles on this site by their number-of-tags. Especially if one could click the groups to go to a view of all of the, say, five-taggers.

Where’s ma’ glasses?
Ugh! It’s so blurry. Even the author’s name is blurry.
Tis a malady affecting the eyesight.
I think you mean “afflicting.”
Yahoo! search “a malady afflicting” vs “a malady affecting” pretty evenly divided in usage. If a malady affects, it also afflicts by being a malady.
I have to say it: m’lady or milady. Not ma’lady. Red flag right there.
Malady does describe this cover.
I thought it was his Ma.
I’ve lost ma’ arm!

“specially if one could click the groups to go to a view of all of the, say, five-taggers.”
What a masochistic idea! 🙁
I took a look around, but WordPress doesn’t have a plugin to do that easily. And I’m lazy.
Dymond Publishing must have pretty harsh standards for their covers.
(I bet you didn’t even notice that was on the cover)
I’m so glad you have a tag for ridiculous pen names. “Willow Fae von Wicken.” Good grief.
