Danielle Louise (daniellelouise) | 83 comments Hi! I just found a book that needs its different versions linked together. It might be a bit of a headache to do -- sorry!

The hardcover is The Sky's Dark Labyrinth and the paperback and Kindle editions are linked as Skys Dark Labyrinth.

The title is The Sky's Dark Labyrinth, and the series title is The Sky's Dark Labyrinth Trilogy. (The second book, if it helps at all, is going to be The Sensorium of God: The Sky's Dark Labyrinth Trilogy, which was originally scheduled to be published in autumn of 2011 but is not actually out yet.) There is also a , which doesn't seem to be anywhere on Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ yet.

It was a tricky one because there's another Stuart Clark and the problem was that some of 'your' Stuart Clark's books were attributed to him. But I think I have fixed it now, and added the Nook edition :-)

The second book still says published Oct 2011, I could update that if you have a new date.

Gee, I have always wanted to be a librarian! But, seriously, what are the qualifications on GR?

Emily | 782 comments December 1941: The Month that Changed America and Saved the World

If you look at the cover, the subtitle should actually be "31 Days that Changed America..."

Could this be fixed? There is a book with the correct subtitle (December 1941: 31 Days that Changed America and Saved the World) but it's a Kindle edition only.

message 319: by Kiri (new)

Kiri | 94 comments #319 - done. and I don't know whay it was using "month" when the real title is actually 31 days.. *gestures* Either way all fixed. However if someone has the audio I"d appreciate the details of it sent along via private message. It appears to be that there might be more than one audio version and I'd like to get it entered properly - but don't have that version to hand. So any physical clarification is welcome. =)

Bea Please add this cover for No Escape: A Novel by Joseph Hayes.

No ISBN. Publisher: Delacorte Press. Published 1982. 279 pages. Hardback.



The other two copies listed on GR have an author name using Arnold. My book has no indication of that name for the author - just Joseph Hayes.


message 321: by Kiri (last edited Jan 07, 2012 09:07AM) (new)

Kiri | 94 comments #323 done (and the author's full name is Joseph Arnold Hayes which is now reflected on GR if not the book.) Your edition was listed under the same but with the Author's last name first. "Hayes Joseph Arnold" He still needs a little sorting out with the different international editions but I've got it on my list. =)

Thanks for the cover and the rest of the info!

Bea Please post this description for ISBN 0962077208:

Three momentous events in the history of Spain took place in 1492: Columbus' discovery of America, the fall of the last Moorish bastion in Granada, and the expulsion of the Jews.

THE ALHAMBRA DECREE is a well-researched novel that vividly reconstructs the forces and the events surrounding the Edict of Expulsion declared by Ferdinand and Isabella, and that graphically relates the misfortunes and calamities that befell the dispersed Jewish exiles. Focusing upon the Jewish community of Segovia, the book describes the mass uprooting and dispersion of Spanish Jewry. Based upon original medieval Hebrew and Spanish documents, many of them eye-witness accounts, the horrifying tale of the expulsion is told as never before.

(This is the first two paragraphs of the cover flap.)

Bea Description from back cover of 0836220927:

After ten years of syndication, Cathy's unique insights into the traumas and triumphs of contemporary life have earned her a place in over 500 newspapers and on the desks, refrigerators, and bulletin boards of some 60 million readers. Creator Cathy Guisewite says she owes her success to "hope, M&Ms, and a willingness to embarrass myself."

Please post.

Bea I added a new edition with cover for The Lonely Silver Rain (Book Club Edition, Knopf pub, 184 pp) and for No Escape (Book Club Edition, Delacourte pub, 279 pp). Neither are showing up today or else there is no cover. Can someone find these books for me? I think they are floating in the netherspace of GR.

Bea Please add these comments to ISBN 0525246924:

From Publishers Weekly
As the fourth mystery in this series lifts off, Upton hands his hero, San Francisco private eye Amos McGuffin, a case that really tries his mettle. This is a crazy, scary, hilarious takeoff on The Maltese Falcon , with McGuffin's ex-wife Marilyn and daughter Hillary seized by Otto Kruger, who has served a prison term for the murder of McGuffin's partner, Miles Dwindling. Claiming that Dwindling had robbed him of a treasured object, a Faberge egg, Kruger demands its return as ransom for the kidnap victims. If the egg can be found, which seems impossible, McGuffin faces the further problems of delivering it to Kruger or to his partner in crime, Klaus Vandenhof, who insists that the masterpiece belongs to him. Both unregenerate Nazis as well as former lovers, the duo threaten to kill Marilyn and Hillary if the detective fails to turn over the egg. Since he doesn't know which of the two is holding the hostages, McGuffin is forced to play a deadly game of deception, pretending he will give the egg to each extortionist, as events whirl toward a bloody finale. Here Upton deserves a standing ovation for a turn-up that is, literally, one for the books.

From School Library Journal
YA-- This fourth Amos McGuffin detective novel provides a pleasant read for mystery buffs. Amos must solve an 18-year-old case involving the death of his partner and the loss of a Faberge egg to save his kidnapped daughter and ex-wife. Upton's wit and humor are evident in the development of intriguing characters, slick descriptions, and continual plot twists. The pace of the plot is steady and provides several surprises at the end. This gumshoe novel will entertain readers for hours.

From Library Journal
Series sleuth Amos McGuffin returns from the Caribbean only to find that Otto Kruger, the mentally deranged man who killed his boss 18 years ago, has kidnapped his ex-wife and daughter. Kruger's former "friend" Klaus, another member of the gay German war veteran community, will help if McGuffin promises to locate the Faberge egg Otto stole from him. The far-fetched but violent plot chugs on from there, with at least two other parties threatening unpleasant consequences for the abductees should Amos not return the egg. A good-hearted, typical San Francisco treat, slightly tongue-in-cheek. REK

Keltie Lee, we aren't allowed to use Amazon as a resource for information any longer, but if you have an actual copy of the book, that's good enough and I can certainly take care of this for you.

Bea Did you miss my requests from #329 - #338? And, now three of my covers are not showing...what is with that?

Also, did I add a new edition for The Sabbath?
(pub Farrar etc, 118 pages)


message 341: by Vicky (new)

Vicky (librovert) | 240 comments Bea,

I got from 329 - 336.

337: The Lonely Silver Rain and No Escape are the editions you created. When you add a new book it isn't automatically combined with the other books of the same name, a librarian has to combine them. I went ahead and did that. I'm not sure why your covers didn't stick though. :(

Are these meant to be alternate cover editions? And if so, what are their ISBNs? I'd like to make a librarian note so they don't get deleted.

338: Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ policy is to not use review-type comments in a books description. Also, we're no longer allowed to use information from Amazon (which it looks like the comments were) please keep that in mind for the future! :)

343: Not sure which three covers are not showing?

The Sabbath is your edition, I've combined it with the others.


message 342: by Bea (last edited Feb 20, 2012 04:52PM) (new)

Bea 337: Vicky, there are no ISBNs on my books. Guess they are too old, huh? Should I just post the covers through this thread?

338: Ok. I will try to get the book again from the library and post something once I read the cover.

343: The covers in post 329, 330, and 331. But now they are there. Ghosties?

I also am reading Red Poppies: A Novel of Tibet but the cover icon does not show in my book list (currently reading). Yet, when I click on the blank icon, the GR book entry will come up with the cover. Weird, huh?


message 343: by Vicky (new)

Vicky (librovert) | 240 comments You can post the covers here and I'll grab them.

I think I fixed Red Poppies. :)
