Not only is this irritating and unintuitive, it appears that this no longer works, as I have been assiduously converting all my books in this way but when I upload them to my new Kindle Paperwhite (latest gen) they all still sort by author's first name.
NOBODY IN THEIR RIGHT MIND SORTS THIS WAY DAVID.
My books that I bought from Amazon all sort by first name. Again. Why has this solution failed? What am I supposed to do now? Is it any more convoluted? Is there another product I should be using if I want this basic functionality to work consistently?

Fix your meta data then make sure the tweaks in calibre are set as you perfer.
