    • Stated - erroneously - as first German edition ("Deutsche Erstveröffentlichung" on the back); it's in fact only the first edition of a new translation.

    • The copyright is assigned for the year 1964 to the author.
    • Stated as a licenced edition of 1985.
    • Apparent first printing.
    • Month of publication from Science Fiction Times Januar 1985.

    • The last page of the novel (p. 171) is unnumbered.
    • The cover art is credited to the agency Norma, not to an actual artist; there's no visible signature. The website of Christian Pree states the artist credited here.
