M.L. Banner (mlbanner) | 5 comments On the book page for Ashfall Apocalypse, in the OTHER BOOKS IN THE SERIES section, two books (and their links) are shown which have never been published nor have ever been available (they were set as pre-order and then deleted). Instead, the following two books should be showing as being part of the series:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

Can these also be corrected on the series page (https://www.goodreads.com/series/2990...)?

Finally, each of these books should reflect their connection to the same series.

I've attempted to make these corrections through "Edit Details" but I get this error: "You are not authorized to perform this action."

I'm less concerned about deleting the incorrect books from Goodreads, than fixing the correct books with the correct listing information and links. Would appreciate any help in fixing these issues.

PLEASE NOTE: I already posted this comment and accidently erased it.

Thank you for your help!
Michael Banner

Scott - Thanks for reply.
However, as I mentioned in my reposting, I'm not concerned about removing the unpublished books (yes, with ASIN's) from Goodreads' DB. I just want the correct books (which are published) to be listed on the Series Information.

Per what is listed here (https://help.goodreads.com/s/announce...), I understand the Librarians Group handles help on edits to series information. This is what I need.

Thanks again!

Scott | 9504 comments I have combined the books as per the initial request, so the current editions do now show as part of the series.

Thanks Scott!
I see the series page (and its links) is resolved. However, on the book page (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...), under "OTHER BOOKS IN THE SERIES", the images and links still show pointing to the non-existent books. Will this resolve itself, or does that have to be corrected separately?

This "OTHER BOOKS IN THE SERIES" is also incorrect on the Collapse book page (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...). However, it IS correct on the Perdition book page (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...), which leads me to believe that this needs further correction in the Goodreads' system.

Again, thank you for your time and help on this!
