✧ bree ✧ (demoloverz) | 3 comments Revenge of the Sith novelisation (Matthew Woodring Stover): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Revenge of the Sith junior novelisation (Patricia C. Wrede) is listed as an edition of Stover's book (same reviews/ratings/etc), instead of being listed as its own separate book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

This should be its own book for author Patricia C. Wrede: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Thanks!

Separated! There were some unrelated strays in there—let me know if they should be grouped with anything else. My Star Wars knowledge is next to nothing. You might want to check the series information on the book by Matthew, the book is currently added to different series which I'm afraid might be inaccurate, it's a result of the bad combining that was done.

- Matthew: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
- Patricia: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
- Patricia coloring book: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
- Comic?: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
- I don't know what this is, I just know it didn't belong, Worldcat wasn't helpful locating the actual author: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

The series:

✧ bree ✧ (demoloverz) | 3 comments Thank you so much!

I'm unfortunately not sure about those remaining strays, but to my knowledge Patricia never wrote a comic so that was likely a mistaken entry, this seems to be the actual comic: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...

But regarding the Matthew book's series categorisation - it correctly belongs in Novelisations where it already is (first series link) but does NOT belong in the Junior Novelisation list (second link); Patricia's should be in its place (book 3) in the Junior series instead! :)

And both belong in the Legends series (third link), but Patricia's seems to not be there at the moment - should be added.

Matthew's should be removed from the Canon series (fourth link); neither his nor Patricia's are a part of Canon. And that list appears to include three other novelisations that actually don't belong in there either (they are all "Legends" books):

- Phantom Menace (Brooks): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
- Attack of the Clones (Salvator): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
- Clone Wars (Traviss): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Again, thanks for your help!!

✧ bree ✧ (demoloverz) | 3 comments Ah! Upon further inspection, the Canon series also seems to mistakenly include these which should be removed (all are Legends books):

- A New Hope (Dean Foster + Lucas) https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
- Empire Strikes Back (Glut): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
- Return of the Jedi (Kahn): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...

I hadn't realised there were so many sorting errors with the Star Wars books! I guess it's inevitable with how many there are and the complicated Legends/Canon system. Sorry to give you more work, but it's greatly appreciated!
