It's been two weeks, so I'm bumping the thread. I also added information for the Kindle edition of In the Devil's Cradle.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6... : yes, ebooks have page count.
someone added the page count: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
Someone already added the cover and the Kindle edition.
https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio... yes, ebooks have page count.
Please, help other librarians and mark the title of your topic as DONE. Thx.

Apologies for the belated response - jury duty. Thank you very much for the all the assistance.
Ebook page counts aren't listed on the publisher website and I don't think Kobo is an acceptable source, unfortunately.

Mothwoman by Nicole Cushing:
- The Kindle edition of the book (Mothwoman, ASIN B0BG4HVYRR) is missing its page count (246 pages) and its publisher (Word Horde).
- There is an edition of the book listed with no metadata at all (save for the title, author, cover, and description). My suggestion is that information be added to turn it into the ebook edition. It can be found here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6... Ebook information is as follows:
TITLE: Mothwoman
SORT BY TITLE: Mothwoman
AUTHOR: Nicole Cushing
ISBN-13: 9781939905734
PUBLISHER: Word Horde
DATE PUBLISHED: October 11, 2022
ORIGINAL PUBLICATION DATE: October 11, 2022
NUMBER OF PAGES: [I don't think ebooks get page counts, but let me know if that's incorrect]
FORMAT: ebook
DESCRIPTION:
From Bram Stoker Award-winning author Nicole Cushing comes a novel about family, grief, aliens, mental illness, trauma, sexism, the Mothman legend, Covid, and the encroachment of unreality into American political life. Mothwoman combines the style and playful dark satire of A Sick Gray Laugh with the grimness and relatively quick pace of Mr. Suicide.

How to See Ghosts & Other Figments by Orrin Grey:
- The paperback edition (How to See Ghosts & Other Figments, ISBN 9781956252057) is missing its page count (254 pages).
- The ebook edition (How to See Ghosts and Other Figments, ISBN 9781939905741) has the word "and" in its title. This is incorrect; it should be an ampersand so that it matches the paperback edition.
- Both the paperback edition and the ebook edition have the incorrect publication date (it should be October 31, 2022), are missing their cover art (https://wordhorde.com/product/hsg-bun...), and are missing their full description (which is as follows):
When it comes to short fiction, Orrin Grey is a magician, a practitioner of an arcane art inspired by the likes of Méliès, Welles, and Bradbury. Through literary legerdemain and stylistic sleight-of-hand, he takes the well-told weird tale into a realm of the supernatural, the uncanny, the theatrical, and, most importantly, the entertaining. And entertainment is what you’re sure to find in this collection of stories, provocatively entitled How to See Ghosts & Other Figments. Through the magic of the written word, you will see ghosts. And so much more! The strange! The sinister! The superlative!
Orrin Grey returns with eighteen haunting stories of the strange and supernatural. How to See Ghosts & Other Figments also includes extensive story notes and an introduction by Silvia Moreno-Garcia.
- The book is missing its Kindle edition. Information is as follows:
