Melissa Craven | 5 comments I am the author of a series called Emerge. All of my books are intended to be titled as "Emerge: The ..." but this doesn't seem to be working as it should.
Currently my books are listed as "The Awakening" series, which is incorrect as that is the title of the first book only.
My second book is a prequel novel and should be listed as "Emerge: The Edge, book 1.5 in the Emerge series." In the metadata listing this is shown as book 0.5 in The Awakening series. This is leading to some confusion over which book to read first and since the prequel cannot be read and understood without reading the awakening first, this is also leading to some confusion in my reviews. The edge has only been out for a few months, but I fear this will have a negative impact on my reviews for this book. I just had a huge spike in sales for this book and I think this is reason why people are purchasing this book first.
Please help!
Thanks so much,
Melissa

Series on Goodreads are titled as Book Title (Series Name #X). Edited accordingly.

Also, decimal parts of series are marked as non-primary. While they still show up on the series page, they won't show up in smaller versions of the series on other pages.
