These two books are the same book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

I tried to combine them, but because each is recorded under different author names (one is real name, another is pen name), the two versions did not show up in the combinable book list.

The two names of the same author:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
