There are two author profiles with different spelling. Please correct.

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Different spellings are legit, but adding the English spelling in addition to the German edition - policy is cover spelling + English spelling.

And Done. Tidying up other combines for Kurkov now :)

This book: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/56... and this book: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/49... both list Terry Taylor twice. He seems to have two author profiles on goodreads (unclaimed) they must be the same guy, no? http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/... http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

Not necessarily, but someone seems to have merged them anyway :)

Jason Richards | 2 comments Please "combine" these author profiles:

http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

As they are the same author.

All 107 books on the second list were written by the first author? Seems unlikely.

Sorry you can ignore, the second list seems to be a general catch-all for the "Mike Smith" author. I have now moved just the relevant book to the correct author profile.

Apologies.
