NOT A REVIEW BUT A NOTE ON PAGINATION FOUND IN THIS BOOK SERIES:

PAGINATION:
Okay due to starting my cataloging with volume #4, then #3, I can admit that I have not looked to see if there is an explanation for the pagination concept utilized in this series (at least in #4 which I am starting with so my books appear in numeric order when I click on the "Your Books" tab), but I have tried to make some sense out of it all without seeing volume (#) 1.


Okay, so this book starts with page 2,559 - 4,105 (commas are included) and it concludes with page 4,718 - 3,172. Confusing is an understatement. Especially since the 2,559 lines up with 3,172 for 613 pages (614 if you truly get it) and the 4,105 lines up with the 4,718 for the same 613 (614) pages. Why they chose to switch the order that they are shown is beyond me but it has to do with the recto versus verso pages.

NOTE #1 - RECTO VS. VERSO:
If you set a book upon a table with the front cover facing upward, all the page that faces upward (ceiling) are called the recto side of a page. All the pages that face - toward the table (floor) are called the verso pages.

NOTE#2 - FROM THE OBSERVED STANDPOINT:
With that data stored, I want you to picture 2 three dimensional cubes ahead of you on the roadway. As you approach, the one on the right is clearly green in color and the one of the left is red. Now drive past those blocks and turn around and the red one is on the right and the green, on the left. Why am I cataloging this as part of the comments? Well, this is how the pagination system has been assembled here.

All the recto pages appear in a chronological order 2,559 - 4,105
All the verso pages appear in a reverse chronological order: 4,106 - 2,560

When I get time I will see if I can find why these series of books requires 2 sets of page numbers. THAT part has me stumped. With the better part of 500 books left to catalog, I am not too worried about it now. Eventually one day I hope to learn the reasoning behind what looks like madness.
