Henry Sturcke | 456 comments A search for this title gets two hits:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
The first hit only has two editions, the second has several. In addition, there is this:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
This is the same book, alternate title (a literal translation of the German original, Das Glasperlenspiel).
This will probably take a lot of work to combine the three, since the result will yield many duplicate editions, I presume. Who's up to it on this lovely Sunday?

Empress (the_empress) Working on this.


Henry Sturcke | 456 comments Thanks, Ellie. Once you're done, I'll contribute the cover of the Ungar paperback.

Empress (the_empress) Okay, the first two should be merged. Posted here as too many shelvings.

I'm clearing some other duplicates at the moment.

Empress (the_empress) I'm done, there are just two more editions to merge here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...


Henry Sturcke | 456 comments May be a cache problem, but I'm still showing two iterations of the Ungar pb.:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

One has no cover, the other has a placeholder. You can get a photo of my copy from my profile.

Susie (dragonsusie) | 2469 comments Sometimes that can happen, as resale editions from Amazon sometimes get imported onto here.

Anyway, it's all updated now. :)


Henry Sturcke | 456 comments Thanks mutely, Susie!
