It assumes the last word in the name is the surname. Which also means it doesn't handle names like "James Tiptree Jr." or "von Somethingother" properly.

And for the record, sorting by author has been discussed here many times. There have been a few suggestions for how to handle it. And calibre has a few methods to make it fairly easy.
