Martin's Press intended to issue the US edition of Pratchett's novel but Colin Smythe declined their offer for subsidiary rights and granted Doubleday's Science Fiction Book Club license to publish a book club edition. This is one of the Doubleday Science Fiction Book Club copies.The code "11154" printed on the rear panel of the dustjacket, "Book Club Edition" printed on lower corner of front flap, no ISBN, code "R32" printed on p188 and "First published in 1986 by Colin Smythe Limited Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire" and "Printed in the United States of America" on the copyright page. Bright, tight copy in Near Fine condition in a Near Fine dustjacket with an archival cover. Upper board corners tapped and dustjacket bottom corner just touched (not immediately apparent).
