Ed Emshwiller is a favorite, and I couldn't resist this cover for Ace's 1960 release of John Taine's "The Greatest Adventure." First published in 1929, it tells of the discovery of a lost, underground Antarctic world. Influenced by ERB's Pellucidar? It seems likely.

While the pulp science fiction magazines had plenty of save-the-babe covers, they also had a fair share of covers like this one by Herman Vestal, where women don't cower from danger, counting on men for protection. One must wonder why such stories are memory-holed...

This fantastic swords & sorcery painting by Rowena captures the essence of S&S. Yesterday, I learned U.S. armed forces found the original hanging in one of Saddam Hussein's townhomes. I guess fans of swords & sorcery art come in all shapes, sizes, and psychopathies.

From Deviantart, S. Sava's watercolor grabs the imagination, and works for sword & planet or swords & sorcery. John Carter movie viewers or ERB readers will recognize it. Why is Carter walking the desert? What hides in the city? This isn't cover art, but it should be.

I picked this cover because I remember buying this issue at a newly opened bookstore. Gordon Dickson was one of my favorite authors at the time, and the cover intrigued me. I don't remember the story, but it's been 47 years. It's past time I reread Dickson's books.

Last Sunday marked the 2-year anniversary of Sci-Fi Daily. I didn't get on social media that day, so here's a belated reminder of how it all began. I'd still buy a book with this cover. Or write it, if I didn't already have more ideas than I know what to do with.

Graphic novels are great for reluctant readers, and the Delilah Dirk GNs are colorful, exciting, and a ton of fun. Told from the Turkish Lieutenant's POV, this one has narrow escapes, heists, & a flying boat. Read the 1st 80 pages free at https://t.co/to4ubSXqxv.

After a lull, I'm back with more book suggestions. Anne McCaffrey wrote a lot of great books boys will enjoy, including this first contact novel. I first read it in college and finished it in 1 day. It's a fun adventure boys middle school age and older will enjoy.

Dan Morton has a whole series of spacegirl artwork. I've shared several but don't *think* this was one of those. I love Morton's retro-futuristic look, especially the skintight spacesuit, the spacegirl's pair of weapons, and her 2 retro blasters. (Yes, I went there.)

The Hostage in Hiding ain't fine art, but it is a heck of a lot of fun. Try it. Like it. Fave it. Find it here:
