I was instructed to get a verification for Paranoia: First Edition. The last numbered page in the PDF is 137.

Paranoia: First Edition is combined with Paranoia: Role Playing Game Of A Darkly Humorous Future (1st Edition) Box Set which is a game box set.
Does this pdf fit the SRC's definition of a book?
"Not all items with an ISBN are considered books for SRC purposes. Flash cards, tarot cards, workbooks, writing prompt books, coloring books, puzzle books, calendars, atlases, bound sheet music, librettos, collections of book previews, any other product with a purpose beyond traditional text reading, or other types of works specifically referenced elsewhere in the SRC rules or FAQs are not considered books. "
Is it a set of game directions? rulebook? Is it intended to be traditional text reading?
Please explain.

Yes, it is a role-playing game rulebook. Intended for reading, yes. Lots of text in it. The original release is a boxed set because it came with dice and some loose papers.

I can't find an isbn. There's one for the game- but that does not qualify with our rule.
From the rules:
A book is a completed work of text that stands on its as a product, whether printed, audio or electronic, that is eligible for an ISBN that is recorded in the Goodreads database.

If you can find an isbn, I will consider it.

There is no separate ISBN for the electronic edition that I can find. It's probable that the publisher never bothered to get one since they're based in the UK, getting ISBNs in there costs money, and this was thrown up on the webstore as a part of a 40-title dump of scanned titles from a back catalogue they inherited when they bought the license for the game. I did, though, discover that there also exists a hardcover book version of the game from 1986, published by Games Workshop for the UK market (the original publisher was American). The editions have now been combined. I feel it is obvious that the ebook would be eligible for an ISBN, even if the publisher has neglected to get one.

Goodreads has determined that FIYAH does not qualify as a book in the past.

If you can find an updated GR statement we will certainly reconsider

Please verify, its a new release and they won't have a print copy out for a couple months, so there's only an ebook and kindle version. I'm guessing its about 300 pages or so.

I listened to But for the Grace. According to GR, there is no print book, only Kindle and audio. The task doesn't require a length but I think I still need this approved for meeting the 100 page length. Kindle shows 250 pages and audio is 9 hours, so plenty long enough. I haven't run into this before where a book has no print edition, so please advise and approve if necessary. If there is a print edition, and GR just isn't showing it, please add it.

[Meg]

Memento - there is one hardcover edition with 88 pages, but it's not in English. The rest are ebooks or audio. Will this work for a 5 point task?

Books in languages other than English can be used to determine length.
