Hi Evelyn,According to the Amazon page you linked,
ISBN-10 : 1938235819 and
ISBN-13 : 978-1938235818
both belong to the hardcover edition here, so it's not clear what you want added. I have updated the page count.

Updated covers need an Alternate Cover Edition added instead.
The new ACE is here.

That's not a process I know well, so I'll leave the updates to be applied by a Librarian who is better at it.
Done.In the future, it's helpful if you can also add a link to the GR book records as well, like so:

Done, and added to serieses

The one that needs a cover is the German edition, which has no ASIN listed:

The Audible link provided is for the English edition read by John Bedford Lloyd, which already has the correct cover, and which I have updated to include the reader.
Yes, I think all that is left now is to wait for the list of books on your profile page:https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
to match the list (of one) on your "books by" page:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...
This used to update much more quickly than it has been doing the last few months. I'd give it a couple of days at least. But if the two lists still don't match after a while, I would suggest contacting staff:

Looks like the author data may be wrong as well. The whole thing is a hot mess. I have contacted staff with a link to this thread.
"Replacing or removing the cover of an existing edition is in violation of Goodreads policy."https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...
Historically, there were (and frankly still are) so many edit wars over cover images—in part because most publishers don't bother changing the ISBN when they change the cover, so there can be many different covers associated with the "same" edition—that changes to cover images in GR have more-or-less been taken out of the hands of Librarians. Far less likely to get oneself in trouble adding a cover image to a book that has none, or an obvious placeholder image, than to change one even so clearly wrong as this appears to be.
In the meantime, it looks like GR Staff have assigned the primary Robert Bone profile to the requestor. I have now moved The Condemned to that profile, and am working to shuffle the other book records to the Robert^^Bone profile.The main author profile pages for both may look a bit odd until those changes propagate through all of the caching. Meanwhile, use the more books by link to see what books really are currently attached to the profile.
Per Librarian Moderator rivka: Please include ISBN in all page number requests, in either the thread title or the first post (or both), even if you have linked to the book.Book links sometimes go to the most popular edition, rather than the edition needing the page number corrected. Including an ISBN in your thread's title and/or in the first post help reduce errors.
Thanks!

Hi Christine,You will probably need to contact paid GR staff for a change like that:
https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta...
Hi Robert,That book is attached to the only Robert Bone author profile that does not have a middle name or initial.
If you have an author profile on Goodreads already, please list it here.
If you do not, the please see this page to look into getting one:

Done (in accord with GR policy, not counting the index).
Done. In the future, a link to the Goodreads book record is helpful when you have it.
