Ah, yep, that's indeed the issue, I just changed the series index number for a couple books and that changes how they're displayed here.

So doesn't that seem backwards? Do people prefer having the last book in a series being at the top? I'd think it would make more sense to have the first book in the series listed first.

I guess I could change the series index number to 0 for all my books, and then it would just display them alphabetically, which would work since I have series info in the title. But it seems better to have the books' metadata contain the correct series number, for device compatibility and whatnot.

I'm assuming one of the Content Server's .js files could be changed so it sorts by series index ascending instead of descending. I don't know much about about coding though. I'm sure I'm not the first person to find this display behavior irksome, if anyone knows of an easy fix, feel free to share.
