Comments and Reviews


ppint. 21st Oct 2020		undated third berkley medallion mmpb printing of the novel, near-identical with second printings (and with the fourth & fifth printings). considerably expanded comprehensive rewrite of ''the night of light'' (novella) f&sf vol.12 #6, 6/1957, which occupies only 50pp. (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 15th Jul 2020		greatly expanded from the 50pp. novella, "the night of light", f&sf vol.12 #6, 6/1957 cover art by david pelham (unsigned, credited on back cover) cover price 30p, $1.00 australia, $1.00 new zealand 176pp. including titles, indicia etc, end pp. advertising (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 5th Mar 2019		the reprint collection, "father to the stars" (tor mmpb 1981), q.v., assembles the 5 father carmody stories - a novelette, three novellas (including the first-published, much shorter (only 50pp.) original novella, "the night of light" (6/1957), not this novel), and a short story - together with an introduction by roger zelazny. (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 27th Feb 2018		cover art by vincent difate cover price $1.50 on the 10/1977 first printing of this edition 160pp. including titles, indicia etc, end pp. advertising the cover image is of a (slightly) later printing as it bears cover price of $1.75 rather than $1.50: it's liable to be the second or thrid printing of the difate art-covered edition. (somewhere along the way the accounting of editions & printings went haywire, as the 1983 $2.50 berkley mmpb is stated in its indicia to be the fifth printing, and it's prob'ly the tenth - not including any canadadian printings separately in the count.) number in the isbn10 field is the sbn this novel actually bears (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 27th Feb 2018		greatly expanded from the 50pp.novella published in f&sf vol.12 #6, 6/1957 10/1972 simultaneous second berkley medallion mmpb printings sharing merkin-printed covers and hence also cat#, sbn cover art by richard powers cover price 75¢ 160pp. including titles, indicia etc. consult indicia to see if carcass of copy held was canadadian- or merkin- printed (applies to at least the 10/1972 first two printings); no priority established nor liable to be, both stating 2nd printing, october, 1972 (new edition) and also check for publishing history line(s) stating any further printing: 1973 third berkley medallion printing 1974 fourth berkley medallion printing 1975 fifth berkley medallion printing all bearing same cat# S2249, sharing sbn 425-02249-8, cover price 75¢ before the berkley publishing group or berkley-putnam shifted to cover art by vincent difate (10/1977), cover price $1.50, isbn 0-425-03366-X, mistakenly identifying it as their second printing, but probably their sixth.
