Midwest Geek (midwestgeek) | 124 comments I just added the audible audio edition When It Grows Dark,
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3..., the English translation of Når det mørkner. This apparently has been entered into the William Wisting Series as book #11, which it may be in terms of publication date, whereas I entered it as the prequel #0.5. My justification is two-fold: that is how it is listed on Audible and, second, that is how it is described by GR reviewers. At 192 pages (5 1/4 hours), it is only a little longer than a novella. Therefore, I ask that the series by changed to reflect its proper place rather than its publication date. Failing that, the recommended reading order needs to be added to the description of the series and a note should be added to the description of #11. These are less satisfactory solutions for new readers than renumbering the series to agree with Audible.

However, I added a note to the series page that book 11 takes place chronologically before book 1. The book description itself makes it pretty clear when it takes place as well.

OK. That's a help. I'm not too surprised that Audible does a better job with the series list than does the author's web page designer WEBLØSNING LEVERT AV (Web Solutions Delivered).
