Notes
Not to be confused with the collection of the same name which contains this novella and appeared in 1989.
In Chapter 13 of the first publication of this novella in Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine (September 1986), Freds refers to "Buddhist guerrillas"; this was eventually changed in subsequent printings to "Hindu guerrillas". At the very least, all versions of the text that appear in the Collection Escape from Kathmandu contain this change, while most pre-1989 appearances in various anthologies and in translation do not have this correction.
