Publisher Orbit Books is asking fans for suggestions so it can create an especially bad, but entirely fictional, SFF book cover. If you’re interested, you have a couple of weeks to submit an idea for “the most ridiculously bad high-concept SFF book cover in the universe.” Once Orbit has picked a title, they’ll work out the reading line, the blurbs, and the cover elements. Then, fans will have an opportunity to help Orbit design a cover for the fictional book.
At the moment, 120 fans have submitted fictional book titles or plot concepts. As you can see from the following titles, fans have flocked to Mars and embraced Martians:
• He Left Me on Mars
• The Hobbits Go to Mars
• Invasion of the Massive Mosquito-pods from Mars!
• Mars Needs Fairies!
• Mars on $5 a Day
• Mars or Bust
• Martian in the Mirror
• Martian Sex Trap
• Martian Under the Doormat
• Martians are from Mars, Humans are from Earth: A Practical Guide for Improving Communication and Getting What You Want
• Motherf*ckers from Mars
• Planet of the Martian Ladies
• Revolt of the Martian Marmots, #6 in The Revolting series
• Speed-dating on Mars
• Tentacle Sex Fiends From Mars
• True Tales of Martian Wanderlust
• Wereturtles of Mars -- the Mutant Ninja Saga
• Winner Winner, Martian Dinner
• Witch Way to Mars
