The heuristic is CHARS PER LINE = 70 LINES_PER_PAGE = 36. In addition images are counted as 1000 chars and headings (h1 through h6) get some additional lines. A 200,000 word book without images should be about 400 pages not 4000, I would be interested in looking at the EPUB to see why it's getting such a bad value.

For technical reasons, grouping by author sort value is a little complex/slower so I left it out. But I can certainly add a group by Author_sort value in the future.

Sub-grouping isnt supported, but, the grouping respects the overall sort within each group. So if you have sorting set to series and then group by author, the books for each author should be sorted by series, unless I screwed something up.
