That's a good idea for a 2nd option: "Merge into NEW book."
It could go with "Merge into First selected book"

I wouldn't want to have to enter that info each time, if there was a way to avoid it. The question remains about what you do with the books that have been merged - delete them automatically or require the user to manually delete the leftovers.

I also thought about automatically saving the merged books with the Save Books settings before merger. That would protect them, but would slow things down and require more cleanup of the disk after using Merge.
