Multiple corrections needed

[Deathburst]

Hi,

There are a lot of issues with this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

First off, it is in fact another edition of this other book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and should be merged and/or combined accordingly. I guess series information are not edition-specific and will be taken care off at the same time.

Then, many fields are wrong:
-- title: Meurtres à LaMut (Les Légendes de Krondor, #2)
-- sort by title: Meurtres à LaMut
-- two additional authors:
* Joel Rosenberg (no role)
* Isabelle Pernot (Translator)
-- pages: 360
-- binding: Paperback (not Mass Market)
-- description: it's full of typos (missing all French diacritics, notably) and can be copied directly from the editor's website instead (see below)
-- language edition: French
-- cover: can be found at the editor's website (see below)

The book page on the editor's website will confirm everything http://www.bragelonne.fr/livres/View/...
EXCEPT for the number of pages: it indicates 480, which is not true.

I have a physical copy of the book, with the exact same ISBN, in front of me at this very instant, and it has 354 pages of true text, and 360 pages counting all the blank/printing pages at the end.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Sorry but I realized after making that first post that the other two volumes are also wrong...

Volume 1:
-- wrong edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
-- correct edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
-- publisher's page: http://www.bragelonne.fr/livres/View/...

Volume 3:
-- wrong edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
-- correct edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
-- publisher's page: http://www.bragelonne.fr/livres/View/...

For those two, the page numbers indicated on the publisher's site are correct.

Many thanks for the quick reply, but I think you made a couple typos.

For this one: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... , I currently see page number as 456, where it should be 384.

For both, I see "Legendes" in the title field, where it should be "Légendes", with an accent on the first E.

I've corrected the accents within the series. I used the page number that Worldcat listed, which is generally more accurate than the publisher page. The only thing that would trump that would be user book in hand; if you own that ISBN and can verify the page count, I'd be happy to change it.

Noches de seducción by Susan Mallery.
This book need multiple corrections.

- it is the Spanish version of this other book (the sheik’s arranged marriage by Susan Mallery), so then should be merge or combined.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

- the Spanish version has the wrong serie’s number it is no book 5 it is book 2

- the book description in the Spanish version is wrong too. It is showing the book description of another book and also it is in English. You can find the correct description in the following link of amazon.

#7 This thread is linked to a specific book, which can get confusing. In the future, please start a new thread for your request.

I've separated the Spanish edition (in the future, links to all editions in question are helpful), combined with the correct translations and corrected description language.

Yes, I do own the book and I did verify the page count. "Un valeureux ennemi" really has 384 pages, as indicated on the publisher's website.
And I'm not familiar with Worldcat, so I might be wrong, but I see 382 (not 456) on this page, which is the Worldcat page directly linked on the GoodRead book page: http://www.worldcat.org/title/legende...

I suppose the (slight) difference is because Worldcat doesn't count the copyright/printing information on the last page of the volume, so use 382 or 384 as you see fit, I'm not sure what's the best practice about that.

Thanks.

That Worldcat entry is for 3 volumes; this entry is specifically for the ISBN in question- http://www.worldcat.org/title/valeure..., so that was what I used.

However, as I mentioned, book in hand (for physical copies) does trump any other source, so I've corrected page count to 384.

This may help re: Goodreads page counts- https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/2....

Thanks for the link.

Everything's perfect now, as far as I can tell :)

Thank you again.
