This is an html version with curly quotes, em dashes, italics, foreign accents for people who care about these things.

It's formatted to be PDA (mobipocket) and iPhone-friendly, as well as looking OK on a full-size screen (but I haven't tested on an iPhone so I'd be interested in any comments on how it looks on an iPhone). It hasn't got a TOC because for some reasons links within a document don't seem to work in mobipocket reader.

Actually, links within a MobiPocket book do work. Check out Overclocked Stories of the Future Present (http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13606) for an example.

I don't understand why, but while they work within prc files I can't seem to make them work with html files. And texts from manybooks.net don't work either so I don't think it's me.

How did you go about creating this edition?

With a text editor (Textmate). My Windows machine is out of action at the moment so I don't have access to Mobipocket Creator.

Are you going to create an LRF version? If not, I may take a shot at it.

Yes - please do. Part of the reason for posting in html is that it's available for people to convert whatever format they have (and using the tools I don't have access to).

I've used the convention of book title as an h1 heading, volumes as h2 and chapters as h3 - if that helps compile the TOC.
