But wouldthe device re-read the file or even notice that it was changed? I didn't try it out as modifying the database directly seems to work OK. Of course either way I lose the changes next time I log out of my account.

For my curiosity, do you have the books loaded in calibre? Either the epub version or an empty book with the metadata filled in appropriately so that they match.

I have the epub versions in Calibre with the author name on both set to "Steven Erikson", Calibre matched them to the kepubs and set the series info for the kepubs from the epubs as expected.
I ran the following command from sqlite3 to change the author name, it seems to have worked as hoped, but I'll watch for problems for a while before I try any more changes.
Code:
UPDATE content
SET Attribution='Steven Erikson'
WHERE Attribution='Erikson, Steven';
