When I read The Once and Future King, it was that edition. It's a pretty good book. On an entirely separate note, I always wondered where Vonnegut came up with the name "Kilgore Trout". Thanks to this thread, I'm pretty sure I know now.

Selachian posted:If you mean Venus on the Half Shell, then no -- PJF wrote that after Vonnegut had used Kilgore Trout in a few of his novels. PJF borrowed the name with Vonnegut's (reluctant) permission because he thought it would be funny to write a book by a fictional author. I actually was thinking of Theodore Sturgeon, given how his name appears on a number of the books posted; I figured the "Venus on the Half Shell" story was written under an assumed name as it appears nowhere else. Good to know my instincts were correct.
