Everyone seems to have got confused with the original title

Thanks."


Done.

Catsalive | 1468 comments These need combining

with

They probably need more than that but I didn't want to go down that rabbit hole.

Thanks :0)

Merged the duplicate edition (unknown author).

Not sure that the Dramatized Editions get combined, I'll look into it.

Yes they do get combined.

I've combined all of them for that series.

Loved that series :)

ETA: Ah, the SuperLib I consulted is now rethinking it, so I'll let you know the final outcome, when she's re-decided :)

Catsalive | 1468 comments Interesting. It's not a play written by someone else, is it? It's just another audiobook edition with a whole bunch of narrators instead of one.


message 4756: by Sandra (new)

Sandra | 1177 comments It comes down to whether its a true adaptation or just bad wording by the publisher.

I assumed its not a true adaptation just a full cast & the music & sound effects, but as I haven't listened to them I can't be sure.

We don't combine adaptations.

Have you listened to any of them Kylie?

I know of them from the Kate Daniels books by Ilona Andrews, but I haven't actually listened to them either.


message 4757: by Catsalive (last edited Jan 26, 2024 11:10PM) (new)

Catsalive | 1468 comments No I haven't listened to it. The only full-cast audio I've ever heard was a Dr. Who, which was quite fun.

Is that because adaptations don't necessarily include the whole book, or that they might have made changes to suit? In that general area, does an abridged version count as an edition to the original book?


message 4758: by Sandra (new)

Sandra | 1177 comments Yes & Yes.

We combined abridged but not adaptions.

Love Dr Who, I've got most of it on dvd/blu ray and the odd collectible as well. Incl a Dalek wall clock that shines blue & white light when the light changes.

I've never seen another one, we were just lucky to come across it at one of the big bookstores that eventually went out of business. Can't remember the name, but it was quite a few years ago now.

Kylie, consensus is combined but removing Adaptation from title & edition field as we don't think it is an adaptation.

Phew.

Really, before the US edition? That's bizarre. The author's site says it was published in 2015.

It happens sometimes. The author wouldn't even think of the Polish edition, as it'd be a very small market compared to the USA.

Thanks, Sandra. It's still weird, though, although I think I may have come across another like it the other day :0)

Signet Regency was an imprint of NAL, which in turn is an imprint of Berkley & Penguin.

But we do prefer the imprint so changing to Signet Regency.

Done.

Carolyn | 9840 comments Could a librarian please see of they can load the cover for The Deepest Kill by Lisa Black (Kensington Books) ISBN 9781496749659

Amazon doesn't have the cover yet but there is one on Netgalley https://www.netgalley.com/catalog/boo...

Thank you!

All done Carolyn. We can't use NetGalley, but when I googled the ISBN I saw Penguin Random House AU has it. Give it a few minutes to show properly, due to caching :)

Catsalive | 1468 comments Please update to ebook rather than kindle & remove subtitle
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.harpercollins.com.au/9780...

This ed needs a bit of work, title & first pub, it's a bit all over the place
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Could you remove the subtitle from this one
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
There are a bunch of others with this superfluous stuff in the title, as well as a few odd random editions with no details, if you feel like correcting them.

This one has Reading instead of Narrator

Thanks.

Changed format to ebook.

Merged the next one.

Fixed the series title.

Merged most of the duplicate/no info editions.

Reader/ing or Narrator, doesn't matter which is used.

This 1866 edition is possibly surplus to requirements

This looks like a sales pitch for a bunch of Hillerman books

Done. Except for the author name with the period, can't merge as there is a follower, so need to send to support, to merge.

Catsalive | 1468 comments I think both the authors are incorrect for this book
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

There seems to be at least 2 different people's books listed under Robert Whyte, if not more.

This book belongs to this Robert Whyte & this Greg Anderson

I leave this in your capable hands. Thanks.
