I'm on a combining binge at the moment but I'm stumbling over a lot of series which I'm passing by. I'm going to start making entries here, if anyone wants to have a crack at them, feel free, otherwise I'll come back to them at some stage. Add your own ones here if you like too.

Combined some on 3, but didn't do the series.

Did some work on that one - there is one more series hiding there but still tracking down which are the other books in it.

>10 AnnieMod: Thank you. I'm staggered at the volume of work that some of these romance writers manage to churn out; series after series.

Not just romance - crime, mystery, fantasy and sf have a similar problem with some of the template authors. :) With some of them I am almost sure that they have autogenerated template and just add the details...

>12 AnnieMod: Yes, they often do use a template, provided to them by the publishers. It's a living.

>12 AnnieMod: & >18 PhaedraB: This http://www.librarything.com/author/lennoxelizabeth looks like one of those Templars er template writers. The Sheik, the Russian, the Earl....

Shaking head and disappearing to read a book that is not based on a visible template ;)

>19 bernsad:

Looks like it - yeah. I had been seeing a few today while untangling the kindle page...

Yeah, and the weird thing was that all of the "The Sheik..." books weren't in the same series!

>26 PhaedraB: They are closely related according to World Cat. The first is a 20 volume set from 1969-70. It was replaced by the New International Wildlife Encyclopedia in 1980, which had 21 volumes. In 1990 the Marshall Cavendish International Wildlife Encyclopedia (rev. edition) was published in 25 volumes.
