REVISED SERIES GUIDE: MEDIUM-SHORT SERIES

[Allan]

I've done a review of our series guide and made some revisions & clarifications. In particular, where we did not list some books in a series if they were not nominated, the complete series list is now shown, with those formerly excluded books flagged with ** before the title. Two page counts are shown: one for the basic series, another that includes all titles.

As in the original guide, series are divided by length into the following categories:
EPIC: 5000+ pages, 5 series
LONG: 2000-3000 pages, 7 series
MEDIUM-LONG: 1500-2000 pages, 10 series
MEDIUM: 1200-1500 pages, 9 series
MEDIUM-SHORT: 1000-1200 pages, 10 series
SHORT: 700-1000 pages, 13 series
VERY SHORT: up to 700 pages, 12 series

This topic is reserved for comments on MEDIUM-SHORT series, additions, observations, etc.
