Speaker for the Dead

Orson Scott Card · Tor Books (New York) · 1986

The Science Fiction Book Club edition is the common look-alike: it reads "Book Club Edition" on the jacket flap, carries no printed price, has a blind-stamped dot or square to the lower rear board, is slightly smaller, and is printed on lighter paper. It lacks the "First printing: March 1986" line and Tor number line of the true first.
