Mark Lawrence (marklawrence) | 136 comments Hi,
The listing for my short story collection:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

has as part of the header/title: The Library Trilogy #1.5-1.6

But the collection contains more than the stories that are separately listed as #1.5 & #1.6

This header misleads readers into thinking it's just those two put together.

The best solution might be to drop the numbering entirely as the additional story is not separately published.

Many thanks!

If that were true then Road Brothers (both the 10 story version and the 14 story version) would be misleadingly titled with #1.5 because they both contain the one story listed by itself:

https://www.goodreads.com/series/6447...

& whilst we're on the subject - could you remove Blood of the Red from the Broken Empire series listing since it is in no way part of that series.

Many thanks.
