Need to merge reviews/stars for name change

[Bard]

Hi,

I recently changed my author name from a pen name to my real one, Lewis Knight (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...) Everything was transferred fine, but none of the reviews/stars have transferred to the books. Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

This does not require assistance from a Superlibrarian; I have moved it to the correct folder. Please see https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Please see: https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/... (See: Author pseudonyms/pen names)

For books published under multiple versions of the author's name or published under multiple pseudonyms: The first author listed for any and all editions should be the author name the book was originally published under - so the reissued edition would need its primary author name changed to the originally published pen name, with the additional name added as secondary for all editions with it on the cover. Doing this will allow the various editions to be combined.

Your books will need to be edited and combined with the older editions. But again, this is something any Goodreads Librarian can do. (It will be a bit of a project, as there are 40+ books involved, which is why I put it in this folder.)
