5*. Give me the Answer• The novels are described as "a trilogy in five parts",

having been described as a trilogy on the release of the third book, and then a "trilogy in four parts" on the release of the fourth book. The US edition of the fifth book was originally released with the legend "The fifth book in the increasingly inaccurately named X's Trilogy" on the cover.
