lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments Got a few of them. My iPod is refusing to do anything else so someone will have to get the rest. By the way for the primary author you don't have to specify the role as "author".

Liesje Leest (liesje_leest) | 17 comments This is going to get confusing, so I hope it still makes sense..(all books mentioned are Agatha Christie books)

The book Moord in de Bibliotheek (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...) has the wrong title. While Moord in de Bibliotheek is an almost literal translation of the title A Body in the Library, that book was released in Dutch as Dood van een Danseres. The title Moord in de Bibliotheek was used for the book Postern of Fate. So the title in the first link should be changes.

I was so confused...I thought I read Murder in the Library but it turned out to be a different book :S

The covers assigned to the books match the title - why do you think that is wrong? Is the description incorrect?

Edit: THe ISBN on world cat also matches Moord in de Bibliotheek

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments Actually I think that what Bookworm is saying (and what a few websites I've been to seem to agree with) is that "The Murder in the Library" was published in Dutch as "Dood van een Danseres", and "Postern of Fate" was published in Dutch as "Moord in de Bibliotheek". Actually goodreads has combined "Dood" and "murder" together. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the title/ISBN.

K.S. Ferguson | 11 comments Can you please combine these editions and use the cover from the second link as the overall cover? The cover for the first edition listed is incorrect.

First edition
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

Second edition with correct cover
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...

Thanks,
Kathy

Krystal109 | 1086 comments They are combined, but don't change covers unless it was NEVER published with that cover.

In other words, are you saying the 1st edition never used that cover and it was always the 2nd edition cover?
