Thank you for the challenge. Interesting Teaser.
I am not very good at Logic Grids, but I attempt them because of the challenge.
I gave it top rating for "fun".

Thanks so much!! I am fairly new at making these logic-grids and am glad for the positive rating.
nice work! I would have liked it a little harder--and I think some of the clues may be unnecessary, but well done overall
I misread I thought it said pages instead of words.
Lol, if there's a 10000-page book in the world, I want it just to say I own the world's longest book.
Interesting topic. The puzzle could be solved without clue #4
#3 is so stereotypical!
the 10000 page book is quite easy to make.... just make sure that it's 1 word per page OR 1 letter page page
Very easy but fun
Nice, but too many clues ... maybe move the fourth clue into hint section ...
Quick solve, but well done
Jack wrote Pirate Quest with 5000 words, Elaine wrote Into the Garden with 2000 words and Lucy wrote Aether Dreams with 10,000 words.
Personally, I think Aether Dreams sounds the best.
