  • Notes:
    • "First Edition" and "Published in March 2010 by PS Publishing Ltd." stated on the copyright page.
    • "Edited by Stephen Jones" (over) "Illustrated by Randy Broecker" stated on the double-wide illustrated title page (pages ii-iii).
    • The ISBN-13s of both this Trade edition (978-1-905834-50-0) and the Deluxe Slipcased edition (978-1-905834-58-7) are stated on the copyright page. These two numbers may have been printed on the back flap of the dustjacket but have been stickered over with new ISBNs: 978-1-848630-89-5 (Trade hardcover) and 978-1-848630-90-1 (Traycased hardcover). The first set of ISBNs are used on the publisher's website. The OCLC record lists the latter ISBN for this edition, but also comes up when searching for the first (stated) ISBN. Only the second ISBN links to Amazon. It appears that there may have been a delay in the production of this title, because most of the books in this ISBN range were published circa 2007-2008. The delay may have been the reason for assigning a new ISBN and the stickering of the dustjackets. The stated ISBN for the Trade edition is an invalid number and the stated number for the Deluxe edition was used for another PS title.
    • "Interior Illustrations Copyright © Randy Broecker 2010" (over) "Cover Art Copyright © Les Edwards 2010" and "Design & Layout by Michael Smith" stated on the copyright page.
    • The contents page notes the appearance of two additional stories in the deluxe traycased edition.
    • "Front Jacket art by Les Edwards" (over) "Back Jacket art by Randy Broecker" (over) "Jacket design by Alligator Tree Graphics" printed on the back flap of the dustjacket.
    • Broecker's interior art consists of a full-page B&W illustration for each story, a double-spread title page, and spot illustrations on pages vi, 123, and 271. The back cover illustration reproduces the same work on page 2.
    • Dustjacket art (both front and back) are reproduced and adhered directly to the boards of the book.
