Works for me on multiple books, note I always use View specific format and select the format I want (i.e. DOCX, or EPUB or AZW3 etc), so I can't say it works with the normal View whatever format calibre thinks I want

If there's some way to keep newly-opened files in the background, should I look for a Calibre setting (haven't found one) or a reading app setting (haven't found on in Clearview)?
That the last selected book comes up on top is a probably an operating system feature.

Maybe you could pre-arrange the books in calibre so that they're ordered in the reverse order you want to read them -- so the last book in the selection list is one you want to read first.
