The picture shown on the publisher site is the "digital archive", they put the same as the eBook. However, the paperback edition has the cover as shown on Amazon. You can see the difference is subtle (one is bluer than the other).

#862 - Pending. PLEASE separate out the target and duplicates before posting or the merge can go to the incorrect edition.

Working on #863 - truncated ISBN13 on original edition which is now pending a reverse merge.

as there is only one edition of this limited edition.

This entry appears to be the complete one (minus the ISBN which has been added to the above edition): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Delete: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
Merge review to this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Cassandra (cassanj) | 4919 comments Please merge and recombine https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2.... Edition to be merged has ISBN10 for edition to be merged into; this edition was added first, but the edition with the ISBN13 has many more shelvings.

As far as I know that's not how things work. Once an ASIN is assigned (to an author, book, series, or anything else) it is never reassigned. There is no way a book ASIN will be reassigned to an author ASIN.


message 869: by ☕ Lachgas ♿ (new)

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments duplicate with truncated isbn13 - seperated the 2 already from the rest (could merge another edition myself) https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...


message 870: by Cassandra (last edited Jun 01, 2017 06:13AM) (new)

Cassandra (cassanj) | 4919 comments Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3.... The book is Kindle exclusive, confirmed by the author in this thread, so it's a duplicate of the edition with the ASIN.

#866 edition without isbn merged (cover from Amazon added to the isbn edition)
#867 done

#868 done.
Please remember to separate both editions when the duplicate needs to be merged into an edition that is not the default.

#869 not done, the author was referred to contact GR support about the initial edition that is now changed into the paperback edition.
See https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

#870 not deleted, as it is a valid Kindle edition. Combined.
#871-872 done
#874 done
#876-879 done
#880 not done, covers are different (The Devil Master in red / in white), needs an ACE if isbn is the same for both covers

ASIN's have been re-used for completely different books, even though that is not how it is supposed to be done.

Leaving for someone else to decide.

Could it be that ISBNs starting with 979– are being introduced?

for the isbn13 I've read that - wondered just if it's a truncated 13 or a real 10, which it really is - thanks for the wiki link arenda will save it)

Thank you!

#888 not done, sorry, the covers are different (author name above title/author name below title
#889 done
#890 not done, both have valid (different) isbn's
#891 done
#892-1/2/3 done (please don't post multiple requests in one post)
#896 done
#899 the edition you linked to is actually a valid edition, it can be combined with the other editions. There was actually a duplicate without isbn and identical cover. Merged that duplicate, and a different Czech duplicate (hardcover with red cover) and recombined.
#901-906 done
