Children of the Lens is the last novel in E.E. "Doc" Smith's LENSMAN series which, in general, Sandy loves.
All of the covers are pretty bad, though.

This story by Jack Williamson was recently reviewed by Sandy. Apparently, the story is not nearly as bad as the art.
But we feel like the cover needs a new title. Can you suggest one?

We're always on the lookout for horrible SFF covers that need renaming.
When we tweeted our review for this book last week, author Myke Cole pointed out that this awful cover is really begging to be renamed:
Folks. This cover is crying out for alternate titles. Something more clever than "Behold! My glowing junk!" Please. https://t.co/UKieUzZ2ZO

Wow. Just wow.
This has got to be one of the very worst book covers we've ever seen.
There are so many ways this is wrong.

I have to admit that I have not read Clash of Star-Kings, but with a cover like this, I'm not likely to pick it up when I see it in my local used bookstore. (And that's a shame because I've read other fine books by Avram Davidson.)
So, if I'm not going to read Clash of Star-Kings, at least I can help rename it with a title that better fits this cover.
Please help me.

No, gentle readers, your eyes are not deceiving you.
This is the cover for the 1975 Ballantine issue of William Goldman's classic novel The Princess Bride.
Yes, we are just as offended as you are. It's INCONCEIVABLE! This horrid cover does not belong on one of our favorite books and, therefore, it needs a new title. Can you help us provide one that's more appropriate? Read More
We here at Fantasy Literature stand with our black brothers and sisters in their fight against the systemic racism that has, since our country’s inception, poisoned and weakened our society. Our motto has always been Life is Too Short to Read Bad Books, but life is also too rich to limit ourselves to reading in only one small corner of the world, to listen to one type of voice, to immerse ourselves in one type of creative experience. Our list of reviewed authors has always been a diverse one, and we will continue and intensify our efforts to further amplify and bring to the forefront the voices of those who have for too long been muffled by the forces of bigotry and oppression.
