Nope; it's still there. Logically, it would have to be since Queen Lucia's there as a standalone.

I must have looked under the wrong format.

Here's the Kindle; There's an ePub upload also.

Later today or tomorrow I'll have another version of Queen Lucia to post. Again, I've found more errors and some of these errors are in the Omnibus that HarryT posted.

I've been reading along with the audiobook and that's how I've been catching these errors.

I've updated the eBook copies in post #20. I've fixed some of the text and I've added in more section breaks. This is all based on proofing the text while listening to the audio book. There are fixes here that are not in the copy that's part of HarryT's omnibus. So if you want to read Queen Lucia than the versions in post #20 are more error free.

Thanks, Jon.

Your welcome. I've listened up to chapter 11. So there could be more fixes.

If it's your thread, you can simply replace the upload with the new one and update the title (for example, from version 1 to version 2). I'd never post a book in someone else's thread, if that what you mean.

I'll PM crutledge and see what's the best solution given that his copy is full of errors.

I'd say a separate thread. There are many such instances of people uploading different copies of the same work.

Wildside Press has Queen Lucia and Miss Mapp in its Second E.F. Benson Megapack for 99 cents. It includes 11 novels and 11 short stories but those are the only Mapp and Lucia books.

(The First Benson Megapack is mostly his ghost stories and horror stories)

So you would just leave things as is even though there are a LOT of errors? people reading that copy will be reading a copy were not only are all the section breaks not there, there are errors in the text that I've fixed.

Jon, I agree with Tom. It's his thread. Each uploader needs a new thread for his own version. It's great that you're providing a clean copy; you'll just have to trust that people check out the options available.

OK, I'll start new threads for this book once it's finished being fixed.

Thanks, Jon.
