[Drace]

There are errors to clean up on the book Antimatter Blues.

1. US Hardcover: Antimatter Blues (ISBN 9781250275059)

- The page count is incorrect. I’m holding a copy and it stops at 292.

===

2. US Paperback: Antimatter Blues (ISBN 9781250322012)

- The page count is incorrect. WorldCat confirms it’s 292: https://search.worldcat.org/title/135...

- The description is incomplete. The following paragraph needs to be added at the beginning, transcribed from the back cover:

From Edward Ashton (author of Mickey7, the inspiration for the motion picture Mickey 17) comes the stunning follow-up to Mickey Barnes’s adventure on Niflheim.

3. US Digital Audiobook: Antimatter Blues (ISBN 9781250880710)

4. UK Hardcover: Antimatter Blues (ISBN 9781786188601)

- “First edition” should be removed from the Editions field. This isn’t the first edition; the US edition was published first.

- The publisher is incorrect. It should be Solaris.

- The description is incorrect. It should read as follows, transcribed from the jacket:
Surviving isn’t living, even for an Expendable.

Mickey7’s antimatter gambit paid off. He’s out of the Expendable game and doing whatever else he can to help support the threatened colony on the ice world Niflheim. But the colony now desperately needs the one thing he doesn’t want to give them: the antimatter in the bomb he claimed the alien creepers have.

Without it, the colony won’t survive the coming years. With it, the colony leader can finally get rid of Mickey7 for good.

But the planet’s indigenous races have their own plans for Mickey7 and the human colony. They want the colony resources, all of them, and they won’t stop until they’ve devoured every last scrap.

5. UK Paperback: Antimatter Blues (ISBN 9781786188618)

- The description is missing paragraph breaks. It should read as follows, transcribed from the back cover:

Summer has come to Niflheim. The lichens are growing, the six-winged bat-things are chirping, and much to his own surprise, Mickey Barnes is still alive—that last part thanks almost entirely to the fact that Commander Marshall believes that the colony’s creeper neighbors are holding an antimatter bomb, and that Mickey is the only one who’s keeping them from using it. Mickey’s just another colonist now. Instead of cleaning out the reactor core, he spends his time these days cleaning out the rabbit hutches. It’s not a bad life.

It’s not going to last.

It may be sunny now, but winter is coming. The antimatter that fuels the colony is running low, and Marshall wants his bomb back. If Mickey agrees to retrieve it, he’ll be giving up the only thing that’s kept his head off of the chopping block. If he refuses, he might doom the entire colony. Meanwhile, the creepers have their own worries, and they’re not going to surrender the bomb without getting something in return. Once again, Mickey finds the fate of two species resting in his hands. If something goes wrong this time, though, he won’t be coming back.

Bumping the thread.

Goodreads librarians: if you are unable to add the edition in #7 due to the disastrous new policy surrounding Kindle and Audible editions, please let me know so that I can contact staff to inform them that they have to carry out Kindle/Audible edits and inform them of the errors that need to be fixed.

All done:)

The entry #7, I didn't put the format because the "audible" format is no longer available, I guess.

Contacted Goodreads Staff to get the format added. Thanks so much for your help!
