Luna Corbden (lunaverse) | 8 comments Hi! Here is the series: http://www.goodreads.com/series/76687...

"Make Willing the Prey" is also part of this series as a prequel (a book zero): http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/88...

Can this be added? I'm not sure how numbering works. If that's something you can adjust, Emerald City Dreamer should be Book One.

Thanks!

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments Also, prequel books aren't part of the primary sequence for a series, so you don't see them in the series preview display, only on the actual series page. The series preview display that you see on your author profile page only shows book 1.

Kim | 607 comments The book page also shows the series next to the title.

Luna Corbden (lunaverse) | 8 comments Ah, I see it. I was only clicking through to http://www.goodreads.com/series/list/... and not clicking again on the series title. Good to know the author page is cached and won't show "0" books.

You are all really helpful. Thanks!

Cait, does this include eBook samplers that only preview a few chapters of the book? I've added a few to serieses with the primary work box unchecked (here and here) but I'm not sure if they should be included at all in the series. What's the right policy?

Also, should they have numbering in the title as in with decimals like 0.5 or should they be left alone?

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments Yes, I'd say to add those to the series as non-primary books. I think I've numbered them something like "book 1 sample", since we usually use the decimal notation for separate short stories.
