David Pelly | 8 comments Hello,
I note that the ISBN shown on the page for my recently re-published book has not been updated. The new ISBNs (new publisher) should be as follows:
Paperback: 9781459758124
e-Pub: 9781459758131

Can somebody help me get this fixed? I believe this situation could create some confusion for folks wanting to order.
Many thanks,
David Pelly

Scott | 5331 comments Those ISBNs are already on your book.
They cannot be changed, in any case.
This was not a new book request.

Sorry, I guess I was not clear. The new, revised edition of "The Ancestors Are Happy", from a different publisher, has two new ISBNs on the book itself and on the publisher's website. The original publisher has gone out of business, and the original edition is now out of print.

The ISBN shown on the Goodreads page for my recently re-published book has not been updated. The new ISBNs (new publisher) should be as follows:
Paperback: 9781459758124
e-Pub: 9781459758131

Many thanks,
David

Scott | 5331 comments Yes, confusion is everywhere including here. Are you asking for new cover editions for these ISBNs?

David Pelly | 8 comments I'm not sure what you mean, but what I'm asking/suggesting is two-fold:
- the correct ISBNs should replace the out-of-date ISBN now showing on the book page for "The Ancestors Are Happy"; and
- both the paperback and the ePub should be listed.

Does that make sense?
I wish I could make these changes myself, but apparently I cannot - so someone with the power to edit the page needs to help. I was told that one of the "volunteer librarians" could do it.
Thanks.

Scott | 5331 comments They *are* listed. We do not remove or replace old editions/ISBNs. As I said ISBNs cannot be changed.
Please, search those ISBNs to see that they are already here.

Closing request.
