I could find series listed only deep within each subject/genre. For instance,
in Fiction and Literature, I had to click Fiction Subjects, then scroll way
down to Fiction Series, then click "More Series", and then I was presented with
a list of some of the most popular fiction series (Left Behind Series, Brother
Cadfael Series, etc.) mixed in with publishers' series (Modern Library Series,
Vintage Contemporaries Series, etc.)
That's disappointing enough, but even when series are listed, they are listed
by publication order, bestselling order, price order, or title order, but not
by the order in which they should be read. And publication order can be
misleading with paperbacks and hardcovers mixed together.
