Sex sells, part two


More far-flung filth and deep space degradation in the second in an occasional series of pulp sci-fi covers designed with one aesthetic and one aesthetic only in mind: the lowest common libidinous denominator of its intended male readership. Never mind 'Fifty Shades of Grey' - it's fifty light years of T&A here on Seduced By Starlight. (And, yes, you did read the tagline on 'Zero Gravity Swap' correctly!)

Erle Stanley Gardner
