Faith Wood (faithwood) | 22 comments Please update the Amazon purchase links on these book pages because the current links are missing or broken. Here are the correct replacements:

1) On the "Chasing Rhinos" book page (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...), please replace the missing Amazon link with:
https://www.amazon.com/-/de/dp/152334...

2) On the "Whiskey Snow" book page (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...), please replace the missing Amazon link with:
https://www.amazon.com/-/de/dp/198131...

3) On the "Agenda" book page (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...), please replace the missing Amazon link with:
https://www.amazon.com/-/de/dp/163760...

Thank you for your help.

Scott | 9266 comments The store links are automatically generated by the ISBN or ASIN that is on the book record. If the ISBN or ASIN is no longer on Amazon, it will not work, and you'll need to choose another edition.

The first book is an older edition that you neglected to include an ISBN when you created the record, so an ASIN was assigned to it. The ISBN of the latest edition is on another record.

The second one, same, but a duplicate and I have merged it.

The third one I cannot do anything with as you have put a comment on the edit page, which prevents any kind of edit. If you delete your comment, I can merge the duplicate record. Note that placing comments like that does not alert anyone to a problem.

In future, do not add a book record without an ISBN.
