Sorry for entirely missing your reply, but thank you very much for the assistance. I'm going to leave this thread open and bump it every couple weeks so that eventually the other editions can get taken care of as well.

Drace (dracenines) | 7367 comments It's been two weeks, so I'm giving this thread a bump in case any librarian wants to add the proper author list to the other editions.

Also, the e-book edition is missing cover art. It can be found here: https://us.macmillan.com/books/978125...

Thanks!


message 7: by Drace (new) - added it

Drace (dracenines) | 7367 comments Bumping again. Full author list is still missing from every edition except the hardcover.


message 8: by Drace (new) - added it

Drace (dracenines) | 7367 comments Another two-week bump. Author list still needs to be added to the other editions.


message 9: by Drace (new) - added it

Drace (dracenines) | 7367 comments Two weeks have passed again. Author lists still needed. Adding them would be much appreciated.

Also, the paperback edition had its cover art released and it needs to be added. It's the same as the hardcover. Publisher website link: https://us.macmillan.com/books/978125...


message 10: by Abcdarian (new)

Abcdarian | 26579 comments Cover added to paperback.


message 11: by Drace (new) - added it

Drace (dracenines) | 7367 comments Bumping again. Authors are still missing.


message 12: by Liralen (new)

Liralen | 8212 comments Done.

A note for future reference: including (Contributor) after each author's name makes it harder to copy-paste (there are separate input fields in the book-edit page for name and role). This sort of list is easier to work with:

Editor:
Editor Name

Contributors:
Contributor Name
Another Contributor
Yet Another Contributor

Thanks so much for correcting this issue, and for the advice. Going to clean up a few other threads I've made where I formatted it inconveniently.

One last note: the incorrect John Langan was added to the Kindle, ebook, and paperback versions, so that needs to be fixed. Here's the proper author page: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Thank you again for all your help.
