next / previous buttons or custom pagers for specific group of nodes

http://drupal.org

I'd like to tie about 6 of my regular nodes together in a loop using next / previous buttons at the bottom. I guess like a mini-book within a larger site with varied content.

I've already done this on handcoded basis using HTML, but very time consuming which discourages me from using in other spots where I'd like to do so.

Is there a relatively simple way to do this without creating custom content types and/or repackaging these pages in views as seems to be requried by Custom Pagers module?

Basically i'm looking for something where i can manually create a list of related pages/node ids, specify the order, and click save to implement.

Result would look not unlike what is done in Drupal.org handbook where selected group of pages are tied together. E.g. - http://drupal.org/node/262854. I'm not sure how this is done, but this sort of thing is about what I'd like.

If possible, I'd like to be able to specify additonal link text per page, so it would say [next + 'page-info'] where 'page-info' is some short snippet of manually entered text (page titles would be too long, so instead would want to add a 2-3 word short description which would be displayed along with the next-previous buttons).

And also if possible, would prefer to style as button rather than straight text, so hopefully would have enough CSS id's/classes to allow styling.
