Series
In genre fiction, series are common. One of the big issues that I've run into is how to mark them in Calibre. Recently, I was going through Calibre looking at a couple of series. Both series had a few omnibus books that didn't track with the actual order of the books. On one series, one omnibus book had books 1 and 4 of the series with a different omnibus book having 2 and 3 (the series had different authors/co-authors). The other series had multiple omnibus books, but one seemed to be a catch all for the ones not in the first 3 omnibus books. I personally prefer to read in chronological order rather than published order, so a bit of a problem.
Then, of course, you have series that branch off into sub tracks. The Honor Harrington books of David Weber are an example of that. Definitely a 1st world problem as they say, but something that can be a bit annoying when I'm trying to read the books in chronological order.
