Notes
- First printing per # line. The printing date is not stated. The source of the 1978-08-00 date used with this ISFDB publication record is Amazon.com which reports "August 1978" and is assumed to be accurate. Locus does not have a record and Contento reports "(E.P. Dutton, 1978, hc); Also in pb (Dell Aug '79)." My copy was date stamped by the original order with November 15, 1978. ~Marc Kupper
- The cover artist credit is stated on the back jacket flap as "Jack design by Mark Rubin". It's assumed he is also the artist as a signature is not visible.
