☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments I came across https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8... and it seems that needs some separation as there seem to be just all Vol 3 combined with each other no matter how many Volumes the collection actually has.

There are some Vol 3 of 4 and some just "Volume 3" still combined.

I already separated the Vol 3 of 5 out which had that in the title but there might be still some missing.

If anyone wants to tackle that I'd be glad...

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments Also that Jules Verne might be worth a look https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

Came across a clear adaption (mentioned in the title) which was combined with the full work. (have now put the adaptor as primary so hopefully that prevents a 3rd recombine)
There might be some more within... for example that one https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... as that seems to be simple french and has a pretty different page count...

Arenda | 26450 comments #2 Done
Separated more than a handful adaptations from "Around the World in Eighty Days", was able to find the adapter for most, put the adapter first and added librarian notes.

I should say "done for now" as adaptations continue to be combined, despite Librarian Notes.


☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments thanks a lot Arenda!
*fingers crossed*

If you still want to deal with some:
At Gullivers Travels there might be some too https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7... came across one that mentioned "based on the book by Swift" so that was obvious. Corrected it and left a note.
(no idea why these classics keep coming up when searching for "9 book series" but well...)
Note sure if there are some because it were so many editions my PC seemed a bit stressed with that many


☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments And Alice in Wonderland https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
came across two adaptions for sure and separated them again and changed author order to the recquired adapter first.

There may be more of them here https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
