Every book in any series the Amazon metadata returns the incorrect book number. (# = # of last book in series)

I assume the parsing of the metadata needs a tweak.


I am still using Calibre 8.16.2. (I will wait a couple more months to be sure the bugs are worked out of 9 before upgrading.)
How do you know this has not been fixed in version 9.x?
