The "General Nasty Stories" are about 20MB for each format. The "Book Nook Book Series" was split over three ebooks totalling about 60MB for the .imp or .prc. The .epub's are currently around 120MB so I think it's including the "other two" ebook's contents each time I convert just one of the three ebooks in the set.

calibre does strive to please when converting from .opf by following links in the .html index to ebooks that are NOT in the .opf so I think ALL the ebooks are in each of the three split ebooks... I'm going to have to redo this using a .zip of only the files I want to include!

I converted just the above, though I did download most of the site (minus the zoo/pet stuff). I originally converted any .txt files to .html using a freeware utility called text2html.exe and used the site's own index to prepare an .opf that I created the .imp, .prc and .epub ebooks! I'd upload these, but the copyright status of the stories is unknown and the subject matter might not be appropriate for a public forum like this.

Oh well, I do have a lot of ebooks I convert for myself that I can't upload (my source is usually a copyrighted website), so this seems par for the course for me...
