I have made major changes to a book I published 15 years ago to make it contemporary WRT technological advances and political references etc.
I would like to retire the original, and publish the latest as a new novel. Is that allowed?
The original only has 12 reviews with an average rating of 4.92.
What is the best option please?
Thanks
Tim

Hi, we don't delete books that are out of print. If the revised version isn't significantly longer, it should probably be combined with the original, however as a Goodreads author, you can set the primary edition.
