Example of the old style cover....

He's fixed most of the older covers to something he thinks is more representative of the stories. But before when I recommended them I kept having to tell people it's not actually porn. It's a Gunsmoke Fantasy world, and one I really liked. No porn or half naked men in the story at all.
And even now I don't agree with his cover choices. I read it more as a Western with fantasy elements, not like 1920's flapper era.
I still tell people they just need to ignore the covers. |
That's a terrible cover. The problem is that we see a cover like that and we don't even bother reading the description.
