The cover is lovely. I'm playing a bit with Mobi Creator here, and creating cover images that have type overlaid on a graphic.

Are you using a version of Mobi which doesn't show you the name of the author?
I'm running Mobi 5.3 beta on Palm OS.

If I tap and hold on the entry for the book in the Library listing, and select Details, the Author does show as Plato.



But the Library list entry itself just says "Complete Works Vol X".



Since it's entirely possible I'll have other "Complete Works" collections, the question becomes how I distinguish between them.

The Contents, incidentally, looks like this:

This is one reason I'm fond of Plucker: I can rename the title shown in the library list if needed to disambiguate. Mobi for PalmOS doesn't seem to include that ability.
