Similarly,
Code:
title: Magician's End
Series: Riftwar [27]
#subseries: ChaosWar Saga [3]
For listing in order, go with main series/universe order. Then list #subseries ( custom column, type "Text column for keeping series-like information") afterward, where it won't interfere with the sort order. |
I'm looking at my LONG list of Star Wars and Star Trek books and wondering is there a numbered list (series/subseries) somewhere? There are plenty of lists available, but none of them numbered.
Another question- Would you recommend numbering the series: Star Wars 1; subseries 1-10, Star Wars 2; subseries 1-10 OR Star Wars 1-10; subseries 1-10, Star Wars 11-20; suberies 1-10? I'm kind of thinking the first option might be easier to manage in the long run but open to suggestions. I don't want to get halfway through editing all the metadata then decide I want to change my system!
