You might try adding the book position in the Sword of Truth series to the first part of the series though, at least for me, this involves a subseries column.

I.e. Sword of Truth [03] is the main series and Darken Rahl [01] is the subseries for Sword of Truth, Sword of Truth [11] is the main series and Chainfire [01] is the subseries for Chainfire, Sword of Truth [10] and Pristinely Ungifted [02] for the Naked Empire.

At one point, I did redo what I own of the series so that the main series order is chronological. That is The First Confessor: The Legend of Magda Searus is Sword of Truth [01] and Prequel [01].
