Nes | 4 comments I need help merging editions of the book There is a Reaper by Michael Lynes.

I found a duplicate of the book under the name There is a Reaper: Losing a Child to Cancer by Michael Lyons, which obviously was a misspelling of the author's name.

Following the guide from here (https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/4...), I changed the name of the author field to Michael Lynes and then separated the correct paperback edition of There is a Reaper from the others. Then I combined the misnomer edition with the paperback edition, and then I attempted to "delete" the misnomer edition, to merge the reviews and shelvings with the paperback edition. I got a pop-up that says I need a super librarian to complete the process because there are too many people using that edition.

Right now that extra edition is combined with the Paperback, Kindle, Audiobook, and ebook editions. It would put my mind at ease if someone could complete the merge process.

Michael Korleone (michaelkorleone) | 3881 comments Merged the blank edition with default. Any edition that has more than 5 shelvings will need a super-librarian and requests for such books need to be posted in this dedicated thread. It's pinned on top of Book Issues folder
