Given your other comments, I'd recommend changing _The Viscount of 
Adrilankha_ to _Sethra Lavode_ because 1) that's where the meat of the 
spoilable things are and 2) since there's no specific book titled _The 
Viscount of Adrilankha_ it might help avoid some confusion from new 
readers.  You could also list it as "_Sethra Lavode_ (aka volume three of 
_The Viscount of Adrilankha_)" if you wanted to keep the TVoA reference.

I agree with the other folks who thought this should read something like 
"...several blank lines, 17 is a popular number."
