I had to look on Amazon to see what the deal was. Yes, there are 3 books, all with this *ahem* level of cover “competency.”
The first is in paperback only with no sales ranking. Book 2 has one review (5 stars – ???) and Book 3 has one review (3 stars). Sales ranks are either non-existent (no sales) or as low as 1,000,000+ to 5,000,000+…
What’s the lesson, boys and girls? COVERS COUNT. And if the cover is amatuer, take it as a warning about the interior.

OK now folks. There is so much going on here that I’m just scratching my head. There seems to be a radioactive issue going on, men losing their pants while holding onto an airplane? Explain to me the men fighting over the lamb while one has a lamb’s tail coming out of his behind???? Then there’s the little guy over the letter”k” watching it all without a parachute.
OK, that’s enough…my head is hurting!

I thought it was a dog. No I guess it has hooves? But, still, what does all this have to do with a supermarket?
Dudes – it’s all allegorical. This is genius. We’re all sheep. The plane is the planet. We’re all losing our pants over the clearly unfair labor conditions. Have you ever tried to rustle sheep at 4000 feet?
It’s all clear as day. Don’t tell me you don’t see it – The dude with the tail. Clearly signifies Satan’s corrupting influence on airlines. The sheep is us trying to smuggle on an extra carry-on without being charged.
My brain hurts.

@John E: Thanks for clearing this up…I think.

This type of cover MIGHT work for a children’s book.
And then again, maybe not.
Just screams clueless amateur.

I have a friend who’s a Tesco’s manager and he’s utterly bewildered by this as well though his best guess was a scandal involving radioactive sheep sold to the supermarket by Russian gangbangers..
The fact that you actually ASKED a Tesco’s manager if he could clarify this is just awesomeness in itself. 🙂 I think I love you for that. In a completely platonic way, of course…

Listen- the intelligent guy (John E) nearly got it right!!!
The older guy with the Miami Vice 1980’s retro drag, white, blue and yellow colors did not!
Thanks for the posting!
