I'm trying to assess whether XOOPS would be appropriate for a specific purpose. I have two books, one 300 pages long and the other 200 pages long. I'd like to host to them both online but I'm having trouble getting the organization through XOOPS that I want. I'm wondering if it's because of an inherent difference in the linear logic of print media versus the randomness of hypertext.

I've tried the default modules for News and Sections but they don't really organize things the way I'd like. Or at least I can't figure out how to use them to achieve the desired results.

Then I installed AMS [Anger Management System] and I'm able to place one book quite simply in a linear fashion which is great. I can't, however, seem to be able to use it to place a second parallel series of articles that make up the second book. Does anyone know if this is indeed possible or whether it's possible to place a second iteration of AMS to get to where I want to be?

Essentially what I want is a couple links from the front page to:

Book #1:
Book #2:

When clicked a new page will come up with the table of contents of book one:

Book #1

Chapter #1
Chapter #2
Chapter #3... #n

Each of these chapter headings will of course link to the actual content. Book #2 should follow exactly the same structure. The only way I can see to get Book #2 on there is to add it after all the chapter headings in Boo#1. Is that correct?
