Silence in October >> missing info: format, pub date, page number...
Fall of the Nibelungs >> should we add "Unknown" or "Anonymous" for primary author?

Paperback, 284 pages
Published in 2000 by Canongate Books Ltd
As far as The Fall of the Nibelungs, I don't know whether 'anonymous' or 'unknown' would be better--The Seamus Heaney translation of Beowulf lists the author as unknown, yet the Penguin Classics version of The Saga of the Volsungs lists that author as anonymous. Both are similar to The Fall, in that the author is unattributed, so I suppose either will work. Personally, I would pick 'Unknown'.

#273: Changed the cover, but I'm not sure what to do in matters of the format. Amazon lists this ISBN with a paperback.
Maybe a more experienced librarian can look into this?

From what I know of this series, both paperbacks and hardcovers had the same image on the cover, so it may be a moot point. The copyright page lists two ISBN's: one C 0130008281, and one P 0130008109. I assume that's C for Cloth, and P for Paperback.

So the format on the two editions

are probably switched?

Looks like it--I can't think of anything else off the top of my head that 'C' and 'P' would refer to. I didn't notice that other edition when I was researching the listings--I was just going off the ISBN I had. I think you're right though--they looked switched to me.

Is the # of pages (120) stil correct for the hardcover-version?
