Descend into a world of savage-breasted giant dayglo women and the tiny labcoat-wearing men who love them. Not to mention vicious one-eyed apostrophe monsters.

Click through for some of our favorite covers from Houdini Nation’s collection of German science fiction paperbacks.

If someone speaks German, it would be interesting to go through and compare the English and German titles of the translated novels. I bet some of the differences are pretty striking. [Houdini Nation]
