Beorn (bsceadugenga) | 227 comments Why is this book listed as being part of The Arthur Books when the series is called 'The Warlord Chronicles'?


Beorn (bsceadugenga) | 227 comments For example, the next book in the series (9780718100513) is also listed as being part of 'The Arthur Books' but book 3 (9780718100575) is listed under the correct series title of 'The Warlord Chronicles'.

This is the first time I've run into the series even being called 'The Arthur Books'.

Beorn (bsceadugenga) | 227 comments Fair enough. It just seemed a little too amateur to be authentic, especially when they're only ever referred to in the books themselves as 'The Warlord Chronicles'.
I guess it must be akin to his 'The Warrior Chronicles' series being mentioned on his website as both that and 'The Saxon Stories' but only ever mentioned in the books as 'The Warrior Chronicles'.

I stand corrected.

Z-squared | 8575 comments I'm guessing it's a regional thing. And the reason that they show up mixed on the series page is that the default edition for each book comes from a different region, so you see different series titles.
