Welcome to the thread! I'm glad you're enjoying Fool Moon. I've always loved werewolves and Jim did an excellent job with these ones.

James Potter and the Morrigan Web is 8.7 MB as an EPUB, a whopping 20.8 MB as a MOBI.
I spent some time tinkering with it in calibre -- the images at the beginning of each chapter are from 200 to 850 KB taking up the vast majority of the space. I have been using GIMP to shrink the size and dropping each one down to normal size -- and subsetting the fonts with calibre Polish ebook. When I'm done if anyone wants I'll share my copy -- although I am sure Mr. Lippert is getting to this himself, someday (I've also corrected numerous formatting errors in the first book and have a kindle-made list of the books-2-&-3 errors. Book 4 to come once I read it.) |

WWWOh, since George delivered it sans cover I cobbled one together and attached it to this post for anybody who wants to use it. Mouse-click it for a full-size view. P.S. [edit add] After resizing all the internal graphics, adding the cover and repairing an oops in the prologue I was able to reduce the size of the resulting ePub to 1.7 megs and the Mobi to 1.5 megs! P.S.S. [edit add 2] Added a slightly different version of the cover. Last edited by alansplace; 08-28-2013 at 12:43 AM. Reason: add info... |
