Thanks, J. Darien.I may have to amend my request.
I have just started the book today, after posting my request, and there are 12 pages of Prologue and Introduction. They are marked as Pages vii through xviii, with Pages i through vi being the title page, dedication page, table of contents, etc.
I am not sure how GoodReads handles the numbering of these pages, when done like this. I will leave it to your good judgement and follow that guideline in future submissions.
Thanks again.
Per the librarian manual:"Introductory material paged using roman numerals is not included in the total page count."
"Page numbers should match the page numbers as listed in the book. If a book begins on page 6, for example, do not subtract from the final page count to determine the “actual” number of pages - simply list the number on the last page with countable content."
So, 286 appears to be the correct number.


Please correct page count for Slugfest: Inside the Epic, 50-year Battle between Marvel and DC to 286 pages. The page count ends with the last page of the book (the last page of the index).
ISBN: 9780306825460
I have this book and Worldcat agrees.
Thank you.
