Talk:Percy Jackson's Greek Gods

Contested deletion
This article should not be speedy deleted as having no substantive content, because... (I'm still working on it and its not yet complete ) --Fieryarrow (talk) 04:36, 3 August 2014 (UTC)

Just tagged as under WikiProject Novels, and Percy Jackson and fantasy Task-forces
As the heading says, I just tagged this article mainly to bring it to the attention of the Percy Jackson Task-force. Not sure it belongs under the task-force's parent projects, but it definitely needs to be where it is for now. It is "technically" non-fiction, though it has some elements of fiction in it. Suggest a change here or on my Talk page. 2ReinreB2 (talk) 03:19, 28 July 2015 (UTC)

US and other editions
Date. This collection as Percy Jackson and the Greek Heroes was published August 7 in the UK and much of the Commonwealth. As Percy Jackson's Greek Gods it was published August 19 in the US (and Canada?).

Its origin is the U.S. authorially and editorially and I retained "Country: United States" in the infobox book, also retained the conventional first listing for U.S. data (and US-only name and isbn). Otherwise in both lead prose and infobox, however, I introduced full coverage of the UK/Commonwealth edition: cover_artist, publisher, pub_date, pages.

Artist credit. The John Rocco interior illustrations are part of the UK/Commonwealth edition. I suppose the cover/dustjacket is distinct primarily for the purpose of matching the entire "Percy Jackson and ..." series, from Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief as vol. 1. (That might have been handled thruout the series by distinct design with same artwork. I guess we would see that if the series had been interior illustrated with color paintings from the start.) For instance from Australia shows John Rocco as co-creator rather than Steve Stone (identified as cover artist at ISFDB where interior illustrations are not yet catalogued for any UK/Commonwealth ed ). --as well as designation "Percy Jackson and the Olympians, 6" that I covered in the new second lead paragraph.

Page count. Note, that Australia edition includes "The Son of Sobek". Perhaps that explains the great difference in page counts. If there are full-page illustrations and a different convention for numbering or counting such pages, however, that also explains a great difference in counts.
