Finally, someone whose Photoshop skillz rival my own. :)
I couldn't help wondering at what point it switched from a review to a bullying. I imagine the debate Jason Kehe had with his editors at Wired was whether this was just plain meanness. (If it was a prize fight, the referee would have stopped it in the second paragraph.)
If I were Lawrence Ambrose, I'd put "As Featured in Wired Magazine!" on the cover.

Yes, I did feel a tiny bit bad for the author but...those quotes from the book - they're terrible! Anyone who publishes a book better be prepared for write-ups like this. Making it public makes it fair game.
Nah great for circulation. Sent me to the hilarious Kindle Cover Disasters.

Kindle Cover Disasters has occupied my evening. www.goodshowsir.co.uk is also great for awful classic sf/f covers.
@Brendan Thanks, can do with more humour. No end of it here.
As much as I enjoyed looking at that cover, I think they missed the mark slightly. The same author has one much more....interestinghttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Holy Crap! There's 6 of them in that series and they're all horrible!I really wonder what people are thinking sometimes....
OMG! That cover!
