Abigail Pankau (agatheathena) | 1350 comments "Cascade Failure" by L.M. Sagas
Paperback by Tor
ISBN: 9781250871251 (ISBN10: 1250871255)
(this one --> https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...)

Please correct page count to 407.

I'm currently reading this book from the library, and here's what's at the end:
- Story ends on page #405
- Acknowledgements - un-numbered, but would be page #406
- "About the Author" - un-numbered, but would be page #407
- Only a blank page after that

The Librarian Guidelines say to include Acknowledgements and "About the Author" pages even if un-numbered - so please correct to 407 to include those.

WorldCat lists the page count as 405 because that is the last numbered page (https://search.worldcat.org/title/137...), but again, the Librarian Guidelines say to include Acknowledgements and "About the Author" pages even if un-numbered - so please correct to 407 to include those.

Please let me know if you need any other information from me.
Thanks for your help!

Siddhartha | 544 comments it's listed with 416 pages as Amazon listing.


Abigail Pankau (agatheathena) | 1350 comments So, as I explained the last time, the Librarian Guidelines state that a book in the hand overrules anything listed on websites. I have the physical book and can verify that the Amazon listing is wrong. Please correct the page count to 407. Thanks!

@Siddhartha, Amazon is not the best source for page counts of print books. Worldcat is better, and book in hand trumps all other sources.

As Abigail rightly states, Goodreads counts unnumbered pages at the end if they contain information belonging to the book.


Abigail Pankau (agatheathena) | 1350 comments Thanks, Lethe! Appreciate the help!
