I apologize I haven't explained it yet. It's not intuitive so I am going to write a small tool that will allow everyone to set the genres for his or her already uploaded e-books. Currently the only way is to "edit" a book upload's first post and then select the prefix from a drop-down menu appearing before the thread title.

When new e-books are being uploaded, from now it will always require the uploader to pick a prefix category.

Fiction as a catch-all genre could lead to books being buried away. As we'll expand the genre functionality, a user will be able to filter for the genre he is looking for. So if you're looking for Mystery books, books that are categorized as Fiction, but could just as well fit into Mystery, would not pop up.

Instead let's try if we can add one or two more genres if needed to cover most books.
