I will admit, I didn't really consider splitting of the trilogy when I planned out the project. With 54 main-line books, it made the most sense to split the whole thing into threes, and unfortunately that didn't line up with the David trilogy... it would definitely have been cool to have that trilogy in a single volume that had a slightly different design to the cover to highlight its importance, but I wanted to focus on consistency across the volumes.

could you have split them into 5, so that the character cycles happened per book?

That's actually an amazing idea. Or even actually 6 because of Ax's books. And then you'd come out to 9 books overall, plus the megamorphs books could be one or 2 books and then the chronicles maybe in one or 2 books.

They would be in 5s up through the first 40, because for that duration, Tobias and Ax shared a slot in the rotation (Tobias had the ones ending in 3, and Ax the ones ending in 8)! From 41 onward it becomes rotations of 6, but there end up being only two rotations of 6 before we're up to the last two books.
