Heya,
I'm working on building a book download system using views cck and taxonomy. I am using views to display the main library, and using cck to hold the book name as the node title and general book info. I am using taxonomy fields to hold info like author, genre, any series the book belongs to. I went with taxonomy for the author name instead of book title so multiple books can be added by the same author, and can be grouped together more easily.
I have reached the end of my knowledge of views cck and taxonomy however. I have a ton of content to add, but i don't want to really start with that bit of work until I have the framework for books to be as close to perfect as it can be.
So, anyone have any advice about any improvements I can make to the system? I found one problem already, the author name. I'm not sure how to go about having the author name be easily readable, but also be sortable by last name...
Also, I've begun looking into adding audiobooks as well, both as links to the zina module, and as an embed from archive.org.
Here is a link to the book A Princess of Mars, with both the zina jukebox module and the embed from archive.org:

Here is a link to the main book download page, which is a 'view':
