Keep in mind, though, that because all those editions of Frankenstein are combined together, the most popular edition that Leonard Wolf contributed to will be what appears on his author page. At the moment, more users have shelved the Essential Frankenstein, rather than the Annotated Frankenstein, so the Essential Frankenstein is what appears on his author profile.
By what rule are they combined? They are really quite different books. If one clicks on Essential, does one get Annotated as an edition of that?Trying to find such as these when doing an "add book/author" is often well nigh impossible.

Yes, because they're all combined together. I know that wading through to find certain editions can be cumbersome, especially for books with thousands of editions. But unfortunately, this is not something Goodreads librarians have any control over.
Z[2] -- Thx for the response! Helpful to know, even if frustrating to live with.
I believe the book above might also appropriately appear among the books of this author:

(I find Essential Frankenstein, but not Annotated.)
Thx for checking on this one.
