Managing series
New at this. But I see series are marked with a [1] or [2] etc.
Is there a way to indicate two or more books in a series in a single ebook edition. For example I have an ebook [1], and then an ebook which is [2-5], and then the final ebook [6] Is there a way to show that the second ebook includes the series 2-5? |

EPUB split is a tool to break them apart and avoid the number range issue. I use [1.05] to imply range. That fails if there is a gap (ala J D Robb ). 1.5 is not 1-50  , but a half issue. the rule is it needs to appear to be a reasonable range

Series [#] is really 2 fields underneath (String and Floating point). This allows numeric sorts of the members or you would see 1.10,100,2,200,3... alpha sorting) There is no bullet proof solution. BTW for magazines I use [year.issue#] and even that gets broken with 'double issues
