AimingGaining | 9 comments Hello,

I added an Audible Audiobook version to Wild Swans as there isn't this edition in the database. Here is the link:

How do I go about combining the audible version to the main one? It appears as a separate title.

Thanks!

edit: Apologies, I should have posted this in the General Discussion forum and not in this one, sorry!

No, this is not for the General Discussion folder. Book Issues is the best folder for requests like these :)

Melanie (mvalente89) | 2198 comments Just a note, this book has an ISBN which means it isn't Audible Audio. Audible audiobooks would have an ASIN, not ISBN.


AimingGaining | 9 comments Thanks for combining, lethe!

Melanie, thanks for letting me know. I'm new to this. :) I wasn't sure which to enter, the ISBN from the publisher's website, or the ASIN from Amazon. The publisher's website shows this:

Please then update the ASIN number as taken from Amazon UK: B00WS6QX4G

lethe | 16363 comments I don't know the first thing about audiobooks. Does that mean that there are both an Audible Audio (with ASIN) and another audiobook format (with ISBN) for this title?

Quite possibly. In much the same way a work can have both a Kindle edition and an ebook edition.


AimingGaining | 9 comments Ooooh..... I see, that makes sense! Good to know in the future, as sometimes I get confused with Kindle and ebook editions, wondering if they're the same.

So, the edition I included is the Audible Audio/Amazon version, which has the ASIN. The publisher's one with ISBN, I noted, has slightly different running times and release date.
