Hissune | 3 comments Hi, it seems that the first book it the Vlad Taltos series by Steven Brust, "Jhereg" is for some reason listed in its German edition, not the original. The German edition appeared in my reccomendations (I almost marked it as "not interested" because I don't speak German) and on the series page (link: http://www.goodreads.com/series/40334... ).
I don't know if it's a bug, but I think it's a little confusing, so I thought I should let you know.

On the series page, in recommendations and other places where one edition represents all editions it is always the most shelved edition.

In this case the German edition has been shelved over 5,000 times, while the most popular English edition has been shelved just under 400 times.

It's likely that some people added the German one in error since it has the same name, I actually see the same problem with Teckla (book 3 in the same series), but there's nothing we can do to move those reviews or change the primary edition of the book.
