KYH | 44 comments 1) Change Language and Description
Could you change the language for
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
from english to german and add the (german) description instead of the english like it is in this edition?
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

2) Is it possible to change the top/main/original edition?
If you follow the Link "all editions" you get "Editions of Ravens, Kinfolgk and Foul Play" and that link leads to
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

In this rare case the German edition seems to be the original version* and the english is the translation. So it should be "Editions of Tod im Tower" and lead to https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (or an other german edition)
*(All the other books in the series are german and not available in english as far as I have seen - and the main part of the authors homepage is german as well)

Is ist possible to change that?

Thank you.

Abcdarian | 26579 comments Changed the language and description. I'm afraid we can't change the default edition; it is based on the number of shelvings. The author could change it herself, as she has claimed the profile, but regular librarians cannot.
