Apologies if this is answered elsewhere; I tried a search and didn't find a thread.

How do people deal with those "bundled" eBooks that have more than one complete book in a single volume when the individual books contained in them are separate items in the Series field (either different volume numbers or, for anthologies, different series)?

Using "&" in the Author field covers different authors, but because of the two field types for Series and Number, there's no way of handling more than one entry in those fields.

Currently I add notes in the Comments field, but that's not very satisfactory when I'm trying to check a reading order quickly. Has anyone devised anything clever with custom fields/plug ins?
