Probably the best example I can think of is Diane Duane reworking her Wizards series to make it modern-day, but there are others, including owners of a literary estate altering books left to them to make them compatible with current standards.

What do you think? Does it matter if it’s the original author or an inheritor?

    Oh, weird. I thought OP was referring mostly to morality changes, like taking out ableist/racist language or something. Why the hell would you retcon the setting like that? Do they really think people don’t understand that cell phones haven’t always existed?
