Just a quickie, if you get a mo. It looks like you've added the big book tickets for The Count of Monte Cristo in post 3193, but not the Golden Oldie one, as that still says 4.

TraceyL post 3536

Task 30.8 requires "The total number of pages for both books combined must be at least 500."

Rogue Protocol audio
"If you read an ebook, or audiobook use the page count for the mass market paperback if one exists. If there is no mass market paperback edition, use the paperback edition and if no paperback is available use the hardcover edition." Full details in the rules.

No MMPB, PB = Kaçak Protokol 128 pages

Exhalation audio
No MMPB, PB = Exhalation 350 pages

128 + 350 = 478

The PB option you linked is written in Turkish. I thought it had to be the same language (English) since page counts vary widely between languages?

From the rules
> If the sort results in an edition in a language other than English the edition SHOULD be used to establish length.
