If I open the book, the information if correct. But viewing the Calibre database in the screen it shows the wrong information.

It may or may not change the title, the series, the author, the comments, etc.

The information it brings up if for the following book

Title: Fourth Wing
Series: The Empyrean
Author: Rebecca Yarros

Any idea why this is happening and how I can stop it from doing this?
Why do you need to download metadata for so many eBooks? Most eBooks have the correct metadata and don't need updating.
