Hmmm... I've got it adding the empty book, and then adding the metadata to the book. It's working so far in a couple of tests.. Once I've run it without needing any edits, I'll post it here in case anyone wants to mess with it.

It's not super user-friendly, and requires ruby and some rubygems libraries, along with an amazon AWS account, but it does appear to work so far...
