No problem. Piers Anthony is more fantasy than anything, but he does some sci fi too. He is
huge on clever word games. In "On a Pale Horse", the first book in the series (about Death), there is a part where death fights a
preying mantis. He has a book where the characters need to go to hell, and the only way to get there is a handbasket...
in the same world, there are centipedes: pennypedes, dimeapedes, nicklepedes.. you get the idea.
