McFarland & Co. is a publisher which sells books primarily to the
library
marketplace. I have seen very good books from them in the past but one
recent example on juvenile series books was vastly over-promoted and was
incomplete in every promised aspect. When I wrote to the editors to
offer updates and corrections, they were not interested. In some cases,
the author only listed 25% of the books in a published series.

I hope the Verne film book is better and does not simply lift the
material
from the JV Encyclopedia by our esteemed colleagues.
