To be a series on Goodreads, books need to have more than a common theme -- like characters in common, an overarching storyline, a shared universe, etc. What makes this a series?

(Also, it looks like this book, and probably quite a few others, need the author's English name (Homer) added as the first listed author.)

Stavros Saridakis (stavrossaridakis) | 3 comments The publisher has listed it as a series. What is common in the series is that every book is a work of an ancient greek author. It's a series-collection of greek literature.

None of those make it a series by Goodreads definitions. In fact, since it clearly would not apply to all editions of these works, it is quite definitely not a series by Goodreads standards.
