Kris, when all this sorting happens (currently) it places the books in a long list. will the grouping in the new edition give each author his/her own page? for example, If I have 35 books by Terry Pratchett, and 7 by Orson Scott Card, and 20 by Poul Anderson, instead of those being in a single list along with everything else, can sort/group by author create a new page for each author, with the books on secondary pages (and the series on further pages)? Is that what you mean by "group by" as opposed to "sort by"?

I no longer carry multiple books by the same author all at once but I know lots who do, and this would be wonderful for them (as well as getting you more new users)

I could see something like this
Author-->book titles
...."....-->Series-->book titles
