Is this a plugin issue or an issue with there simply, really being no description?

The book in question is Abaddon's Gate, The Expanse. Using either of these ASINs (with corresponding Goodreads page) yield the same result with no character descriptions.

ASINs with Goodreads links:
B009SQ018I (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/...abaddon-s-gate)
or
B00A2DZMYE (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/...abaddon-s-gate)

Thanks.
There's actually no description. If you go to either of those dates and clock on any of the characters, you'll see that Goodreads gas no information on them other than their name. Goodreads in general is pretty sucky about that. Most of my books have no descriptions but I don't have any other good sources to use for data that is easily parseable or has a reliable API. I've just basically been using the first seen clip of the character I'm looking at to figure out what I'm supposed to know about them.
