This looks like a great thing with large libraries
You need to be running PRS+ 2.1 (currently in alpha but quite stable). Once you've installed that, go to Settings » PRS+ Settings » Book Management » Collections and turn on Sub-Collections. You can also specify the Sub-Collections Separator. The '.' period character is compatible with Calibre's sub-groups so that's a good one to use. Unfortunately, several of my tags contain a period so I prefer to use the default '|' pipe character.

Collections

Sub-Collections

Allows you to create unlimited extra levels of collections by putting separators in the name.
Here are a few examples based on the default separator (|):
Code:
Name                                    Will become
Genres|Fantasy                          Genres -> Fantasy
Genres|Fantasy|Series|Harry Potter      Genres -> Fantasy -> Series -> Harry Potter
It is recommended to use Calibre to automatically create such collection names from available tags/series/etc (for example, like this).
Sub-Collections Separator

This setting determines which character is used to split sub-collections. The default is the pipe chara

Sub-Collections Separator

This setting determines which character is used to split sub-collections. The default is the pipe character (|).
The other options are: period (.) comma (,) colon (:) semi-colon (;) forward slash (/) tilde (~).
