Not getting parts in the right order

Attach, I have put my split up html files which is what I give to ebook-convert. You can see that it orders the partNNN.html files in order.

But the output has them mixed up. It puts them out roughly in the order they are read:

toc.html
part000.html
part001.html
part019.html
part002.html
part005.html
part004.html

...

The script I'm using is:

Code:
#!/bin/sh

rm -rf debug-output
mkdir debug-output

/usr/bin/ebook-convert \
  toc.html \
  test.epub \
  -v -v -v -v \
  --flow-size 1000000 \
  --debug-pipeline debug-output \
  --output-profile nook \
  --max-levels 2 \
  --level1-toc '//h:h2[@class="epub-toc"]' \
  --level2-toc '//h:h3[@class="epub-toc"]' \
  --level3-toc '//h:h4[@class="epub-toc"]' \
  --dont-split-on-page-breaks \
  --language en \
  --authors "Ian Hickson, David Hyatt, et. al." \
  --pubdate "$( date '+%b %d, %Y' )" \
  --publisher WhatWg.org
The --flow-size option I add / remove depending up which set of bugs I want :-)

Note, I have also tried adding a file like this (below) and used it as the input file to ebook-convert:

Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
    <title>Web Applications 1.0</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <a href="part000.html"> </a>
    <a href="part001.html"> </a>
    <a href="part002.html"> </a>
    <a href="part003.html"> </a>
    <a href="part004.html"> </a>
    <a href="part005.html"> </a>
    <a href="part006.html"> </a>
    <a href="part007.html"> </a>
    <a href="part008.html"> </a>
    <a href="part009.html"> </a>
    <a href="part010.html"> </a>
    <a href="part011.html"> </a>
    <a href="part012.html"> </a>
    <a href="part013.html"> </a>
    <a href="part014.html"> </a>
    <a href="part015.html"> </a>
    <a href="part016.html"> </a>
    <a href="part017.html"> </a>
    <a href="part018.html"> </a>
    <a href="part019.html"> </a>
  </body>
</html>
It has the same problem. Part 019 comes very early in the book.

Any advice on how to work around this?
