Originally created by @wihlner-addcream on GitHub (Sep 2, 2022).

Describe the feature/enhancement

Expanding on #443 a bit. If a series exists, it would be great if you could fetch data for books that have not been added to your library yet.

Series Name
Book 1 - Released, In library - Click to play
Book 2 - Released, Not in library - Click to show meta data or Goodreads/Amazon link
Book 3 - Per #443 - Upcoming book, expected release date 2022-09-03

Where would this pull from? AFAIK there isn't any audiobook database with an API.

I feel like this would be a feature better suited to readarr or "ombi for books" or something similar. Jellyfin, for example, offsets the management of future TV episodes and movies in the same series to Ombi/Sonarr/Radarr.

This would be amazing. 75% of the reason for me getting into AudioBookShelf was for the series section. I own over 600 books from Audible and it's super hard to easily tell what series I have purchased books to read but haven't gotten to yet using the Audible app.
This seems like the next logical step. The ability to cruise through the series section and see there's a new "ghosted" book tucked behind the ones I already own to key me into there being a new one I can explore would be amazing.

This is a feature I really would like to see. Sometimes it would be nice to see if you are missing a book in a series or when a new book is upcoming.

This chrome extension will notify the user of upcoming releases: https://github.com/demoran23/audible-series-follower

So maybe it is possible to do something similar to that addon.

I thought I'd leave this here for anyone who comes across it and wants to implement it and/or add it as a plugin, when support drops.

I am creating AudiMeta as an Audible (and potential more in future) that can fetch all books in a series. For example:

https://audimeta.de/series/books/B01N9CUGHG?update=true&region=us

will return all books for the random series I selected. This also includes upcoming books if they are in the series (as indicated by releaseDate of the books).
