It sorts as such? Hmm. Must be something changed for the more current versions. On the older one I have, if I sort by Author, I get:
Peter Watts - Blindsight - I of Firefall
Peter Watts - Echopraxia - II of Firefall
Peter Watts - The Colonel - 1.5 of Firefall
If I sort by Series, then the books are in correct order, but the authors are all over the place
However, I suspect that, for this instance, I'll need to learn how to set up a custom sort order [Author, then Series, then Series_Index, and then (if no series) Title].

Authors will always be all over the place no matter what you do IF there is a conflict between fields. You can't have 2 sorts at the same time.
OTOH Calibre biases sorts (IIRC 3 levels) by the previous sorted field.
eg sort {title}, then {Author_Sort} and
all Authors books will be in Title order
BUT
If you have a Series with different Authors (combinations), then you can NOT have it both ways You sort by Series (includes Index) or Authors
