WorldCat is saying the book has 496 pages... Does your edition only have 488?

The actually story does. The pages after it are acknowledgements, about the author and an excerpt from the next book in the series.

Between WorldCat saying it has 496 pages and Amazon saying that the book has 498 pages, and what you've written, it sounds like the page count may already be accurate. Per the Librarian Manual: "The number of pages in a book is meant to include all content except for advertisements and preview chapters for other books. Included end material may include acknowledgments, afterwords, appendices, bibliographies, glossaries, indexes, notes, and suggested discussion questions."

If you have a reliable source that has 388 pages listed instead, please post it here. Here's a link to what Goodreads accepts as "reliable sources": https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...

I should note: if you have a copy of the book personally in your possession, you can let Goodreads librarians know what page the acknowledgements and about the author end - the preview for the next book shouldn't be included in the page count, but the others are.

I do have a copy of this book in my possession. The acknowledgements and about the author end on page 492.

Done - changed to 492. :)
