You HAD to describe what a centaur was, didn't you? I was trying to line up a good joke, clicked, read the blurb, and deflated. Instead I learned something new, there are centaurs in space!

centaurs in space!

I can imagine the '50s B-movie poster already.

Blonde woman in an astronaut suit (no helmet, obvs), beautiful face clearly shown expressing her awe, riding the back of a centaur and clutching his muscled human half as he's trotting over a planet or moon.

Also, he's aiming a bow with a laser arrow at a space monster.

(Jesus, did I just write an AI prompt? Also, half of that works for a centaur romance novel as well.)

I think you've got the makings of a retro pulp webcomic right there. :)

Tina Belcher would be proud.

Whelp, it's good to know somebody's breathing out there.

I'm sure they detected some foul breath too.
