Change the order of Descriptions in generated mobi/epub catalog?
Currently the mobi/epub catalog automatically generates the "Descriptions" section in order of author alphabetically. I'd like to have it in order of recently added instead. From what I can find, it doesn't seem to be an option anywhere in either the settings or the html template file. I'm comfortable with Python so I would do it myself if I could find the code that generates the catalog, but I can't find that either. Could someone help me out?

In case anyone else wanted to do so, I made the following substitution under the fetch_books_by_author function in epub_mobi_builder.py:

self.books_by_description = self.books_by_date_range

which has worked!
