- Publication is a small size HC (about the size of a "pb") with no dust jacket. The boards are covered with a thickish cloth and the cover art and title, etc. are on a rectangle of paper (to the outer white border seen on the cover image) glued to the cloth. The lettering on the spine and back cover blurbs is printed onto the cloth, although the barcode, ISBN, price and a website URL are on paper glued to the cloth.
- There is a pocket inside the back cover containing a folded game board/map "Peril of the Pole" and a card with press-out game tokens and compass. (Can be seen on Amazon UK.)
- There are some unnumbered pages after "THE END", including rules for the game and some "facsimile" cuttings and "hand written" letters. Within the story text there are some "facsimiles" of documents related to the story, as well as the illustrations (engravings).
- Note: As at 5 March 2009, Amazon UK's pages for this publication seem a little messed up. The ISBN-10 stated is derivable from the above ISBN-13, but the ISBN-13 stated is that of the limited signed edition with slipcase. The cover displayed here is correct cf that on Amazon UK for this ISBN.
