Done - I was able to revert some of it and updated the rest.
Not Amazon's fault. The publisher re-used the ISBN.This book needs to be added and shown as another issue of the ISBN.

There is a problem on that Amazon page, as the isbn10 and the isbn13 that are listed don't belong together.

978-0060179229
The page for that isbn10 already exists on GR: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... with the correct matching isbn13: 9780670885954
Better sleuthing. You’ll see I reported in the “Amazon Destroyed” thread. The importer needs to be reined in.
Thanks for all the help cleaning up this issue.
The book linked in this thread is not River of Darkness. It is Imajica by Clive Barker. For some unfathomable reason, the bot changed the book's title, author, and description to something entirely different. Is there any way to easily revert all of these changes, or do they need to be manually updated again to the correct information?
If it's the latter, the information that needs to be changed is as follows:
TITLE: Imajica
AUTHOR: Clive Barker
DESCRIPTION:
From the master storyteller who brought you the international bestseller The Great and Secret Show comes Clive Barker’s most powerful and accomplished work to date: Imajica.
Amid a seamless tapestry of erotic passion, thwarted ambition, and mythic horror, Imajica picks out the brightly colored threads of three memorable characters: John Furie Zacharias, known as Gentle, a master forger whose own life is a series of lies; Judith Odell, a beautiful woman desired by three powerful men, but belonging to none of them; and Pie ‘oh’ Pah, a mysterious assassin who deals in love as well as death. United in a desperate search for the heart of a universal mystery, all three discover that the truth lies in a place as mysterious as the face of God and as secret as the human soul. They discover the Imajica:
The Imajica: five Dominions, four bound together – reconciled with one another – and one, the Earth, forever cut off from her brothers, her inhabitants living in ignorance on the edge of a sea of possibilities, an ocean of mystery and magic. Only a very few know of the Imajica, and of those, many are frightened. For a time is coming, a time of great risk, a time of great promise. A time of Reconciliation.
It happens only once every two hundred years – a shining, mystical moment in which Earth can be reunited with the other four Dominions. As Judith, Gentle, and Pie race to capture that moment, other forces are gathering to keep the Earth locked up forever in the darkness that surrounds her.
None of them will remain unchanged by the journey. Nor will the reader who accompanies them. Imajica is a novel of vast panoramas and intimate, obsessive passions; of visionary splendors and heart-stopping terrors. It is also a book of revelations. Long after you have turned the final page, you will be yearning for its wonders, and believing they are just a breath away.
