  • Notes:
    • Book club edition determined by the lack of a printed price on the dustjacket, the removal of the first edition statement from the copyright page, and the Book of the Month Club indention on the back of the book.
    • The copyright page contains the complete Library of Congress Cataloging in Publication Data including the ISBN (0-15-130118-2), and the LCCN (78-53866).
    • Year of publication not stated. This date based on the date of purchase of the verified copy.
    • "A condensed version of this novel originally appeared in Playboy Magazine." stated on the copyright page.
    • The cover for this printing doesn't have the gold foil background as that of the first edition.
    • "Jacket design by Stanislaw Zagorski" printed on the back flap of the dustjacket.
    • The book club indention on the back cover appears to be in the shape of a maple leaf, so this may have been printed for the Canadian market, even though there is a statement "Printed in the United States of America" on the copyright page.
