• First printing (number line on copyright page: "1 3 5 7 9 8 6 4 2")
• Veniss Exposed: Precursors & Epiphanies is listed as one title in the list of contents and on its title page, but actually consists of two different kinds of text: first a short story (which has no own title), followed by VanderMeer's afterword. The afterword first briefly refers to this short story and then addresses the novel. Short story and afterword are only separated by three asterisks.
