Drace (dracenines) | 7819 comments The paperback edition of The Fisherman by John Langan is listed as having 266 pages, but Amazon and the publisher website both list it as having 282 pages. Any help with this is greatly appreciated.

World Cat (our preferred source for confirming page counts) also has this book at 266 pages. Can you tell me what is on pages 267-282? Some things we count & some things we don't.

I unfortunately don't have my copy of the book on me, but if World Cat is the preferred source, it's the preferred source and I don't see a reason to change it. Alternatively, I can swing by my nearest library in a day or two and take a look at their copy to confirm.


Carol She's So Novel꧁꧂  | 2462 comments World Cat is great but not infallible.

Amazon & some publishers the page counts are often more like estimates.

Just bump this thread up if you check a physical copy & find the page count isn't correct.
