The K. W. Jeter Series Infernal Devices is spread over 2 different series with the same name.

I'm not seeing what you're talking about here.  Did someone fix it already?

The problem is with the Series list page: https://www.worldswithoutend.com/lists_series.asp?l=i

It looks like a side-effect of the issue mentioned elsewhere where series are sorted in date order, coupled with the fact that "Infernal Devices" and "The Infernal Devices" are sorted the same. The page shows the first book by KW Jeter, then two by Cassandra Clare, then the second Jeter, then the third Clare. The easy workaround would be to rename one of the series so it isn't just a "The" that separates them.

Oh, my.  Now I see what you're talking about.  We'll take a look at it today.  I don't want to rename unless we have to.  There may well be other instances of the issue too.  Thanks for pointing out the problem.

And thank you for explaining the problem. I was having a hard time describing it.

OK, Whargoul fixed the issue.  Have you seen anything else wrong with that list?  It was mentioned in another thread that the sorting was off - showing books in pub order rather than the series order - but I haven't seen that.

I am still seeing occasional odd things. The Powder Mage series on the P page ( https://www.worldswithoutend.com/lists_series.asp?l=p ) seems to be in the wrong order for no apparent reason.

Most seem to be good now but for some reason "The Adversary Cycle" is screwed up.
