Rebekah Ganiere (vampwerezombie) | 20 comments Hi! There are a couple old covers on old versions of my book and I have the new cover on this edition of the book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
I need to get all of the covers changed to this cover. I also see that there is an ebook edition and a kindle edition of my book, is there any way to combine those? Here is a link to the book cover on my site as well.

The ebook and Kindle edition are combined correctly but there is a duplicated paperback.

Do you have new editions of all three formats, the paperback, Kindle, and ebook?

Rebekah Ganiere (vampwerezombie) | 20 comments All the editions are correct and up to date, only the covers are wrong and need to be replaced. All with the same image.
Thanx a bunch!

OK, I'll do that.

This paperback has a truncated ISBN-13 in the ISBN-10 field. 9781633000 is not valid. That is why I said it was a duplicate. If you have a correct ISBN for a second paperback then you can add it otherwise it probably needs deleting or converting into one of the new covers (it has not been added or reviewed).

Rebekah Ganiere (vampwerezombie) | 20 comments Oh! I see what you're saying. Okay let me look :) The ISBN for paperback is: 978-1-63300-001-8. So I am assuming that one is wrong for some reason.

Banjomike | 5166 comments Right, I've added the new cover editions. Since that paperback was already almost an Alternate Cover Edition I've made it into a proper one.

Rebekah Ganiere (vampwerezombie) | 20 comments Okay it is now showing 6 editions with 3 of them having an alternate cover. Is there anyway to just delete the old covers and add the new cover?
Thanx so much for your help :)

No, sorry. Not allowed. Once a cover has been seen in the real world we must keep it. You can make the new cover into the default which will appear in searches etc.
