True
It is frequently has the midden heap of tags.

Rarely has Series metadata even though Calibre WAS part of the work flow (stripping non-DC metadata?)

The biggest flaw (an a new download won't cure): Inconsistency from the same publisher. Variations on the Authors name (s/b Catalog name, not as shown on cover). Variations on THEIR NAME.
