Night Terrors: The Ghost Stories of E.F. Benson by E. F. Benson & David Stuart Davies

When I click on that particular book to find other books by those two authors, OL seems to search for just books by just the first author listed - E.F. Benson and not the second - David Stuart Davies. The only way I can find books by David Stuart Davies is to add an empty book.
The plugin configuration setting "Max authors to search per book" defaults to 1. This means that unless you change that setting only the first author name for each book is used for searching. It is assumed that you have entered books in calibre with the primary author first.

Setting this value higher will cause more of the authors to be searched per book. Doing this will cause the plugin to find additional book matches occasionally, but can result in significantly longer search times.

At the moment this setting is not used for the discovery of additional books, not already in calibre. Only the first author is used for that. I will change this in the next plugin release so that book discovery will use multiple authors per book when "Max authors to search per book" is set greater than one.
