The British edition is reportedly some 150 pages longer than the US. The author prefers the shorter. At least some paperback editions claim that there was a 1993 hc edition published by HarperPrism. This seems very unlikely because (i) bookfinder.com is unable to find any such books for sale; (ii) the copyright date is 1995.
