The Isbn 9780099449256 (2003 edition) has actually the red cover uploaded by Ingram and used by this edition, that lacks of Isbn:

Should the latter one be marked as an alternate cover edition?

Thank you Luisa :)I thought as much, I had the cover ever since I have added the novel so I was surprised about the change. And not in a favorable way lol
Luisa, I am not sure I can answer your question but I assume it might be/is an alternate or even a new cover. At least the red one seems to be the one the publisher favorites. At my 2003 edition it says the ISBN is 0099449250 and underneath the barcode it says 9780099449256 (is that the ISBN 13?)
I have looked at the link above again and the red cover is an edition from 2008
EAN: 9780099449256
Published: 17 January 2008
Format: Paperback
but the EAN ? is the same, the ISBN likewise?
seems somehow the cover of this book was changed in the last hour:

And if you look at the other editions there is already one with the same cover.
I have the paperback in front of me and the ISBN 0099449250 is matching. I have checked the publisher and the new ? cover is the one they have on their website (now) *sigh* so it might be because of some data import, maybe, that the change was made.

I have uploaded a picture of how "my" cover looks like, sorry its not the best of qualities so of no use - just that you see how it looks like. I cannot find anywhere the one I have online :(

But I hope somebody can undo or change the cover again b/c at the moment I am extremly
pisseddispleased. I want my covers matching with the ones I have in my RL library. Thanks.
