When I search by author, I prefer having the non-series books presented first (as if I'm after a series I can search for the series).
As such, I've set up my plugboard in Calibre to convert the titles so that for example, the following two books by Timothy Zahn:
get their titles converted into:
As `{' is after all letters in the ASCII table, and I thought that the Kobo would do lexicographic sorting.
However, I instead find that it if I search for `Timothy Zahn' in the search interface and have the results sorted by Title, it presents all the books whose titles start with `{' first, which is the exact opposite of what I want.
Apart from prepending all series with `ZZZ' or something (which would be a pain to read), is there anything I can do?
