Currently, I use hierarchical Series (series_name.prequel_name) because Series_Index in Calibre does not accept <0 (at least in the GUI)

0.n books are usually shorts that may have resulted in a series:
Briggs-Alpha & Omega
Clarke- Venus Prime (Preuss turned it into a series)

I sometimes used negative sign as a flag and still used ABS(value) as originally used back when lean & mean was the rule
