In the Library of Congress catalog as of 2016-04-04, all four books have ^Main title^= "[...] edited by Rick Yancey", and all but the first "[title /] William James Henry ; edited by Rick Yancey". On the other hand, only the last has a ^Personal name^ Henry rather than Yancey, so that only the last is credited to Henry as a pseudonym of Yancey.
Will Henry is the boy narrator, apprentice to the monstrumologist Dr. Warthrop; William James Henry the Yancey pseudonym.

Questions raised by The Painted Wall
- Pu Songling as co-author; what is the criterion?
- Pu Songling like Brothers Grimm, and unlike H.C. Andersen, is credited with collecting folktales; folklorist rather than writer of literary fairy tales
- ISBN-10 deprecated at LCCN User talk:Mhhutchins#ISBN-10 and ISBN-13
- Anthology or Collection?
- Would it matter if Songling were an oral historian, naming particular folk who told him the tales? Songling as editor/author of a collection or anthology whose oral history subjects should be named as authors

The Lightning Thief cover art mixups
- Rocco 2014 Cover: The Lightning Thief T1244491 "One in a set of 5 "new covers" for the Percy Jackson and the Olympians novels, announced by John Rocco in February 2014. The far left one-fifth of a single illustration spanning all five novels. Rocco was one previous creator of cover art for each of the five novels. John Rocco, "Percy Jackson gets new covers".
(no date; first comment dated 2014-02-28)
2014 Cover: The Sea of Monsters is no longer in the database except as represented in omnibus covers. The note above should be used for all of the new COVERART Titles as they do appear in the database.
Diagnosis:
Amazon falsely, perhaps deceptively shows later cover images on its page for these novels --perhaps later printings with different cover art, for the "first paperback edition" as defined by the industry
Now visit and see these are nominally first US paperback editions, 2006 to 2011. Perhaps the one ISBN is still in use and the official edition is the same, but the cover is new and Amazon shows the new cover images.

Delete Image URL because it targets Amazon's cover image for the current/recent edition/printing, which incorporates the 2014 Rocco illustration of the novel. If I understand correctly, this URL will drop out of the database except for the submitted Note; the linked cover image will no longer be displayed as one of <a href="http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/titlecovers.cgi?180971">All Covers for The Sea of Monsters</a>. In order to confirm or correct my understanding, I will look now to add the current edition as a new publication.
At Amazon I find the current cover illustrations of Percy Jackson novels (US eds., illus. John Rocco) displayed only for editions for which Amazons early publication dates, presumably because every product now in print is treated as a later "printing" of an early edition rather than as a later edition.
There is true even for the omnibus editions, presumably both CD and print, for which Amazon does provide a complex set of 7 images. Select "See all 7 images" and observe that thumbnails for the five novels cover images are square in shape but do not carry text that identifies them as audio editions. Select one of the five novels cover images and observe that the big target images are rectangular in shape as for books.
- [176] (omnibus edition; no direct link to the complex cover image "set of 7" is available, afaik)
- [177] (The Sea of Monsters cover image in that set)
![[177]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/91M9nrgsz-L.jpg){kind=link}
Anyway, the latter is evidently a very large, high-resolution image. I wonder whether it is considered appropriate for target here.

what's the point?
- On the main point, for The Sea of Monsters and nine other Percy Jackson novels, I will work on this from the direction of COVERART records. As for The Book of Three under guidance and moderator approval of Mhhutchins, I will merge multiple COVERART records that now represent multiple uses of one illustration (art) in cover designs of multiple publications. All with the date of earliest known publication in whose cover design the artwork is incorporated.
- The Book of Three Evaline Ness 1964 including one radically different 2014 cover design (whose image is linked)
- proposed The Sea of Monsters John Rocco 2006
- As an aside, I wonder whether moderators (not I) are able to check whether the field Image URL has been revised since a publication record was primary verified? (I know that the manual urges editors to be cautious about revising primary verified records, and to give notice at the user pages of the primary verifiers before/when they submit such revisions, and that some moderators check for such notices before they approve such submissions.)
- On the main point, refer to The Sea Monsters (Title 180971. The list of publications begins with eight that carry 2006 and 2007 publication dates including 7 for U.S. editions (and there is no U.S. edition with "date unknown"). I know that John Rocco's contemporary illustration of the novel is the one used on covers whose images we now link to the 2nd, 5th, 6th, and 8th of those publication records; and that the same artist's 2014 illustration is the one used on covers whose images we now link to the 1st, 3rd, and 7th of those publication records (the 4th is a U.K. edition).
- Regarding the 7th Publication 546581, I infer from the Note that the source of our error is 2015 reliance on Amazon --which commonly, as in this instance, displays current cover images; and, i suppose, latest in-print cover images for editions that are out-of-print-- for a 2007-04-01 "edition" (not Amazon's term and not necessarily what ISFDB or the publisher or I would call an edition).
- Regarding our 1st and 3rd publication records for this novel, I feel certain that the source of our error is similar, if not identical. Those two records acknowledge Amazon for the linked cover images but donot cite Amazon in Notes. For the 1st (the first publication of the novel, I believe) we cite OCLC 64664383 but that page is currently illustrated with a cover image that uses the 2006 Rocco artwork.

Denouement 2015-12-31
- The first sentence of a rule cannot define its scope. Nor can any other part of the text without explicit wording that addresses the scope. If the rule pertains only to works published in magazines then the heading needs to indicate that this Exception is specific to magazines. If your interpretation of the rule is valid, its heading should begin "Exception for works published in magazines", or similarly such as "a work published in a magazine", etc.
- Is any of this written up clearly anywhere in the "manual"? When content is deemed to This point concerns internal title pages, not title pages of books but title pages of contents of books --including the novels itself for a book that contains almost nothing but one novel; also a title page for part one of a novel if the novel is published in two books, or in one book that contains part one and part two, book one and book two, etc. Sometimes there is a page with nothing but a roman numeral such "I" representing book one, part one, chapter one, section one, whatever. Are there indeed many novels published with internal title pages that precede some front material?
- Take a recent edition of The Return of the King off the shelf (of local public library). ISFDB deems this book a NOVEL. The content of the "novel" may or may not be deemed to begin on page 755 where the text of its first chapter begins, as stated in its table contents. The previous printed sheet, recto, two pages back at [753], states "Book Five". The printed sheet previous to that one, recto, or [751], states "The Return of the King // Being the third part of [yada yada yada]". Everything else (including "Synopsis" of preceding volumes) is front material --or earlier front material if we consider [751-54] front material. (By the way, I don't know the page number on which the preceding volume The Two Towers ends (at least 750 and 754 must be candidates), nor do we have two consecutive volumes from any one edition on the shelf at the moment. But this is tangential, as "by the way" implies.)

- further note on Kirkus Review of first ed.
The strongly negative review (certainly bottom 5% of more than 100 Kirkus reviews I have read) begins with several lines (until the ellipsis) about the heart of the final chapter in this first edition. O'Brien wrote an alternative, much shorter final chapter for the first British edition. They appear as the final two chapters, p248-59 and p260-63, in a later U.S. edition (Collier Books, 1988).

Add Pub done
(Note to Moderator) "This is the correct David Mitchell per "About the introducer"; LeGuin links a recent article/review by Mitchell in The Guardian "David Mitchell on Earthsea – a rival to Tolkien and George RR Martin" [Martin=Westeros] but we don't do anything with that as far as I know. The last line weakly supports year 2015 for the ignorant such as me; may actually date the selection for those who know the newspaper Books section well."
Indeed, Le Guin links this article as if it were the Introduction verbatim.
- btw Mitchell: "Earthsea is a fantasy world, and proud of it, mapped by its creator in 1966–7 on a large sheet of butcher’s paper with crayons in a house full of young children."
From a glance at a friend's copy of the book I know that it includes a new essay by Le Guin ("Afterword" or whatever), which notes that the illustrations by Lupton are the first to match her Earthsea (not "whitewash"), or first since the first ed. woodcuts (woodcuts too coarse for whitewash imo).

Illustration of Farmer Giles or Smith as SHORTFICTION, OMNIBUS, COLLECTION, CHAPBOOK in multiple title records. Cannot we represent the omnibus, collection, or chapbook all as including a single INTERIORART Title as contents --in effect, illustration of the original shortfiction (1949 Farmer Giles, 1967 Smith).

Barnes updated her Narnia illustrations in 1999 or so, at least by coloring them. I recall reading that U.S. editions had included fewer illustrations, so that the appearance of entirely new illustrations in the 1999 set may be an illusion for American eyes only.

Editions examined (usu. one of multiple printings
- 2 3 4 6 --1999 Revised hc Henry Holt (Ness cover art)
- 1 3 5 --2006 Wyatt cover art
- 1 --2014 and later 50th anniversary edition (two vols extant)
The novels carry five distinct maps (c) Evaline Ness 1964 to 1968. Book 6 carries map 5.
In the database all 5 maps under 6 titles are attributed to Evaline Ness with 1964 to 1968 dates (as contents of those 8 of 14 "recent" editions examined).
5 maps are attributed to uncredited with 1964 to 1968 dates (as contents of the 1991 Prydain omnibus).
By retaining distinct records until the maps are examined and judged to be identical (same artwork), we guard against such problems as [a] existence of two maps with 1964 copyright used in later editions of The Book of Three and [b] error by the omnibus compiler in claiming 1964 copyright for the map that illustrates The Book of Three in that volume.
- About the Author
Evidently there are seven variants of one closing ESSAY "About the Author". The basic appears in 1999 book 6 and in the Square Fish edition (some?) of the 2006 Wyatt cover art set. Books 1-5 in the 1999 set prepend one or two pertinent paragraphs to the basic. Book 1 in the 50th anniversary inserts Alexander's lifespan in the lead, "Lloyd Alexander (1924-2007)". In the 2006 David Wyatt cover art Henry Holt paperback ed. (rather than Square Fish ed.), the novel-specific 1999 About the Author appears.
- Close examination of the Wyatt set 1 3 5 shows that only The Book of Three "First Square Fish Edition June 2011" omits the first paragraph of About the Author and thus matches 1999 book 6 rather than 1999 book 1. The Henry Holt ppb ed. book 3 printed September 2010 and the "First Square Fish Edition August 2011" book 5 both include such a prefix and are identical to About the Author in those volumes of the 1999 set.

"What happens next is always an urgent question, and this volume attempt to answer it, at least partially. Nevertheless, The Black Cauldron should stand as a chronicle in its own right."
