Notes

  • Second printing of 1508 copies printed per S.T. Joshi's Sixty Years of Arkham House.
  • Price per Sheldon Jaffery's The Arkham House Companion.
  • "Illustrations by Jeffrey K. Potter" stated on the title page.
  • Potter's interior artwork consists of half-page B&W illustrations for each story's title page, and ten full-page B&W illustration.
  • Three of the stories include Potter's artwork for the stories' original appearances in Asimov's. "How the Wind Spoke at Madaket" replaces the third magazine piece with a new work. "R & R" uses only one interior piece and the cover piece from the magazine, deleting the magazine's 2nd and 3rd pieces, but adding a new piece for this publication ("R & R [4]"). "The End of Life as We Know It" adds a second piece to the magazine's original single interiorart piece. It's actually a B&W reproduction of the art used for the cover of the issue of Asimov's which first published the story.
  • "Jacket art by Jeffrey K. Potter" stated on the back flap of the dustjacket.
