Random books?

Hello,

in Calibre there is an option to pick an random book. Is it possible to pick more books, for example as a search/virtual Library with e.g. 20 books?

Thanks in advance

No.
But you could use the 'Mark' function after each roll of the dice

;bulb; remember to clear existing marks before you begin
right click on a title to see the Mark context menu options.

remember to do something with those marked books (send, tag...) as marks are forgotten at the end of calibre
