 timescape was the name adopted for the sf & fantasy imprint pocket books/simon & schuster hired david hartwell to set up and run (to compete head-on with random house/ballantine's by then immensely successful del rey imprint) shortly after it was started, as is indicated by the use of the s&s/pocket publisher isbn code, "0671-", and was not a separate publisher.


title is properly " golem^100 " - " golem(to the hundredth power) ";
but it seems bookcat cannot cope with superscript numbers indicating powers, nor with recording them as is also conventional online, such that 2^2 (= 4), 2^3 (= 8)

pocket books timescape imprint mmpb simultaneous near-identical first printings sharing merkin-printed covers°, first p/b edition

cover art by rowena morrill (signed "rowena") (re-used from and credited on h/cvr d-j back flap)
b+w full-page interior illustrations by jack gaughan (credited) were based upon those by alfred bester in the submitted typescript and are an integral part of the book: but they were poorly-reproduced in all of the trade and mass market editions i've seen, compared with those by bester himself (iiuc?) submitted in the "manuscript".
cover price $3.25 (canadian-carcassed copies for distribution north of the parallel, maple leaf on cover)
cover price $2.95 (wholly merkin-printed covers for general distribution)
392pp? including titles, indica etc.
