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.

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...

Shaking head and disappearing to read a book that is not based on a visible template ;)
>19 bernsad:

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

I think both these series may be the same, but I don't have time to research it right now:

>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.
