Hi, Carrie.
Sorry to drag this out further but I don't know if Companion would work.
From what I've seen, "Companions" are usually guides or similar books that give 
extra information about an author's setting.

  Ah! I'll say that the related books are companions. Great idea! Hopefully 
Bookshare members will understand the terminology.
  Thanks for the suggestion, Melissa!

  PS, since everyone agrees, I'll go with Kenyon's list rather than the others.

  Carrie, I'm not familiar with this particular series, but I would follow the 
numbers given on the author's site. I know, with other series, sometimes there 
are books that are related, but not considered part of the series. They will 
sometimes call these books companions to whatever series they are related to.

I thought I'd fix all the series numbers in the titles. I checked 
fantasticfiction.com, wikipedia.com, and sherrilynkenyon.com, and what a mess! 
All 3 lists are different, and they can't even agree on which one is the very 
first novel. Evidently there are a lot of books about Dark-Hunters that are 
outside of the main reading sequence. Does anyone have a strong preference 
about which list to follow? My inclination is to go with the list on 
sherrilynkenyon.com, figuring that she should know about the reading order of 
her own books. Some of her books have "Dark-Hunters #N" in their subtitles, and 
some just have "Dark-Hunters". If I follow that, some Bookshare members will be 
confused. Why would some books have numbers and not others? Should I say 
"Dark-Hunter related" in the titles of books that are outside the main reading 
sequence? Is there some simple way to make this clear to everyone?
