Sci-fi/fantasy q: examples of series with a built-world that's published as part of the series?Like an encyclopedia? Is Silmarillon closest?

@FrankieWeldon@vgr Agreed, but Silmarillion isn't an encyclopedia.
@jonathanglick @FrankieWeldon I did read Douglas Adams' Meaning of Liff/Deeper Meaning of Liff dictionaries. Not quite world-building tho

@vgr@FrankieWeldon Lots and lots of SFF authors have glossaries, timelines, family trees at the back of their books. -
@vgr@FrankieWeldon I suspect many of these are written for themselves, as they write, to keep characters etc clear. - Show replies
