There are some issues that need to be cleaned up with the novella The Pale House Devil by Richard Kadrey. (I previously made a cleanup thread for the book before it released, but since that thread has been dead for so long since all the issues were corrected, I thought it would be better to start a new thread rather than resurrect an old one.)
- The page count is incorrect. It should be 115. The numbering stops at 115 and the rest of the pages are the About the Author page and advertisements for other books from the publisher.
- This edition is listed as separate from the other editions of the book. It needs to be combined.
- “Library Edition” needs to be removed from the title.
- The publisher is incorrect. It should just be Tantor Audio.
- The page count is missing. It should be 3.
- It should be noted in the Editions field that this is the Library Edition.
- The description is missing. It should read as follows: A gripping, snappy creature feature from the master of horror noir about two detectives—one dead, one living—hired by an embittered old landowner to banish a bloody cosmic monster from his ancestral home, perfect for fans of Cassandra Khaw, Charles Stross, and Lucy A. Snyder.
Ford and Neuland are paranormal mercenaries—one living, one undead; one of them kills the undead, the other kills the living. When a job goes bad in New York, they head west to wait for the heat to cool down.
There, a young woman named Tilda Rosenbloom hires them on behalf of wealthy landowner, Shepherd Mansfield, to track and kill a demon haunting a mansion in remote northern California.
As Ford and Neuland investigate the creature they uncover a legacy of blood, sacrifice and slavery in the house. Forced to confront a powerful creature unlike anything they've faced before, they come to learn that the most frightening monster might not be the one they're hunting . . .
The second book has not been announced, but the author has said The Pale House Devil is the first book in a series called Discreet Eliminators. A series page needs to be created for it.
