Subtitle?

"A Novel with Three Codas" appears on the MacMillan webpage, but I see nothing in the physical book to suggest it has a subtitle. It's just Redshirts on the cover, spine, title page, and copyright page.

You are quite correct. My search last July turned up the same thing that you mention and it was the books listing at the Library of Congress that convinced me to move the page. Unfortunately I did not follow through with removing the subtitle from the infobox or the article. My mistake and thanks for your post so that I could correct it.

Scalzi said in this NPR interview that "the original title of it was Redshirt: A Novel with Three Codas.". Obviously that changed before it was published. (talk) 202.81.243.211 (talk) 17:21, 16 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The story contains 2 realities. In one Intrepid is a spaceship, in the other she is part of a TV-show. These 2 realities communicate. The story wouldn't be possible without this element. Part of the story is to uncover this situation and react to it. These facts belong in the plot summary and the themes. 87.48.55.126 (talk) 07:53, 11 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
