Steve Rainwater (steevithak) | 12 comments Author Walter James Miller created a series of books called the "Annotated Jules Verne Series" which are special editions of Jules Verne books that restore missing text, correct English translation problems, include complete illustrations from prior editions, and include annotations. But his annotated version of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea is just one edition among 300+ editions of that title and the same for later books in the series. How can a Goodreads series be created to list his specific editions without appearing on all the unrelated editions of the title? Here are a couple of examples from his series:

Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (book #1 in the series)

From the Earth to the Moon (book #2 in the series)

This is not a series according to Goodreads series policy.

There is not a very good way to track publishers series / imprints, although some people create a Listopia list: https://www.goodreads.com/list

Steve Rainwater (steevithak) | 12 comments Ok, thanks. Sounds like a listopia list might be the only option for now.
