Flood | 4 comments The Dead Man by Joel Goldman is shown as "Jack Davis Mystery #3":

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/63...

According to the author, this is the second book in this series. Could you please change to "Jack Davis Mystery #2" ?

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments Got it -- looks like the second and third books were accidentally swapped there, since book 3 was listed as #2.

Kate Aaron (fairkatrina) | 22 comments I've got a similar problem, I know I'm being really anal but Fenton: the Loneliest Vampire is book #1.5 in the Lost Realm series, and Fire & Ice is book #2, at the moment they're listed as #2 and #3. I've changed the title descriptions but I can't edit the series numbers - can anyone help? thanks in advance!

message 7: by Kate (new)

Kate Aaron (fairkatrina) | 22 comments ok...now I'm being a pest but Fenton: the Loneliest Vampire isn't showing up as part of the series on my author profile. it's there when you click on the series link, but at a glance it only looks like books 1 and 2 are there. is there any way of fixing this?

Kim | 607 comments It can take 24-48 hours for it to show up on your author page.


message 9: by Kate (new)

Kate Aaron (fairkatrina) | 22 comments ok thanks, I'll be patient!


message 10: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments No, that's on purpose: only primary books show in the smaller series display, so you only see book #1 and book #2 there. Short stories (and boxed sets and anything else not part of the primary book sequence) only show on the full series page.


message 11: by Kate (new)

Kate Aaron (fairkatrina) | 22 comments aaah ok thanks for clarifying!


message 12: by Andreea (new)

Andreea Daia (andreeadaia) | 127 comments Hi, good librarians!

The anthology http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11... contains in fact all 10 stories, according to Amazon description (ASIN: B004QS9972) http://www.amazon.com/Lost-Tales-Merc...
Ten short stories explore this setting through the eyes of ten different characters."

The problem is that the paperback edition has only the first 5 stories, while the ebook (Kindle) edition has all 10 of them. So I believe the problem is that there are 2 different omnibus editions combined into a single entry. (Granted the problem is that they both have the same title!) Also, the cover of the ebook is incorrect (I uploaded the correct one under my profile pictures - http://www.goodreads.com/photo/user/5...).

Thanks and have a great evening!
