Hi,

unfortunately I do not know how to do this.
Is it enough to change the name of the series in the Field title?

I think that a different name of the series for the English editions is a good idea, as the original is German: Die Danny Trilogy.

An English name of the serie will make it easier for the English readers to find the books.

How could we add a list ALSO KNOW AS (with hyperlink to the editions of another language) as it is at this series:

Somebody please help!
Thank you

Yes. We do not create a different series for each language, as that gets both crowded and confusing. I also added the name of the series in English to the description on the series page.

I would kindly like to ask you to change the name of the series of my books from the German name "Die Danny-Trilogy" to the English version "The Danny Trilogy". I find it confusing to have different names for different languages of my series and find it the best to have one common name and that should be English.

Would that be possible? Thank you.

Goodreads policy is for the series page to have the name of the series in the original language, with series names in other languages listed in the description.

Thanks for your answer. Is it possible to drop the "Die" in the German version? "Die" is used as an article in German, but might appear a little unappropriate for English-speaking people.

Since the "the" is optional in English, I see no reason why it shouldn't be in other languages as well. Removed on the series page, but individual books' title fields still need that edited.

removed the "die" (and corrected some other minor issues like praise/review/links in description, weird author role)

That record seems to be incorrect? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
Do audible books not have an ASIN instead of an ISBN or is both possible? (only saw ASIN assigned to them until now)
