Nude? Check.
In space? Check.

Hey, the cover nails it. Because space exploration and nudism go together like peanut butter and jelly, right?

For those wishing to immerse themselves in the naturalist culture of Nudist Space Colony Five, please remember to be courteous and bring baby wipes and a towel for sitting. No one wants to sit in your butt sweat.

Thank you,

Golly. And all this time I thought Space was, you know, like… empty. A vacuum.

I never realized it had rocks, a stream, vegetation, and a pair of Adam-and-Eve wannabes running through it. My bad… 🙁

I have to admit, the cover is intriguing, in a kinda WTF way. Especially the way the nuddies are kinda stumbling through it. Makes me think the novel might be humorous. But then I read the blurb:

Earth, somewhere in the future. The environment has changed. Cities are large, closed structures with permanent air conditioning, and nudist villages have appeared in the warmer areas.

When space explorers encounter problems while trying to ‘tame’ a new planet, they turn to the nudist population of earth for help. What will these nude space travellers encounter once they’ve left earth? And will they be able to return to their home planet?

WTH? “We have air conditioning, let’s all go nude now?” Yes, that makes perfect sense. “How are we going to colonize this planet? I know, let’s bring in the nudists!” So logical. “What will these nude space travellers encounter once they’ve left earth?” Um, shocked and embarrassed aliens? Also, does it sound humorous to you? I can’t tell.

Ah. The author is a naturalist. That explains a lot.

To be fair, a Nudes in Space idea has been in my future stories queue for quite some time now… 😉
