- No statement of edition on the copyright page, but there is an incomplete number line: "4 6 8 10 9 7 5 3" indicating an undated third printing.
- Title page is credited as "Written by Mr. Scott Westerfeld" (over) "Illustrated by Mr. Keith Thompson". Names have been normalized for this record.
- The copyright page contains the complete Library of Congress Cataloging in Publication Data including the year of publication (2010), the ISBN of this hardcover edition (978-1-4169-7175-7) and the eBook edition (978-1-4424-0957-6), and the LCCN (2010009755).
- "Designed by Mike Rosamilia" stated on the copyright page.
- The code "1010" is printed on the front flap of the dustjacket.
- The full-color endpapers (front and back identical) are signed "K. T. 09" so they're presumably by Keith Thompson.
- "Jacket design and photo illustration by Sammy Yuen Jr." (over) "Airship, loris, and shell illustrations copyright © 2010 by Scott Westerfeld" (over) "Airship, loris, and shell illustrationd by Keith Thompson" printed on the back flap of the dustjacket.
- "Illustrated by Keith Thompson" stated on the front of the dustjacket and the title page. His interior art consists of 21 non-captioned half-page B&W illustrations (several of which extend across two pages), 33 full-page captioned B&W illustrations, and 2 double-page spreads.
- Verified copy was purchased from the SFBC, so it's possible that there was no separate SFBC printing and that they offered the publisher's trade edition to members.
