I have also corresponded with them about their catalog (they must be getting a lot of email traffic from just this thread! ). Trying to comply with different national copyright laws has resulted in some less than complete volumes.

From their email: " the majority of Virginia Woolf’s works will still be held under US copyright laws for many years. This Virginia Woolf Complete Works volume is only available in Australia and Canada at present, and in the UK and most of Europe next year. But in the US, because many of her works were published after 1922 and their copyrights have been renewed, it will be a long time until this works will be available for US customers in the Public Domain."

"However, in the US customers can purchase the H.G. Wells’ eBook, while in Europe everyone has to wait until 2017!."

It appears they are trying to be scrupulous about complying with the myriad of copyright laws and offer only those works that have entered the Public Domain for each country.

If anyone here can help them locate an epub partner for file conversions, they seem perfectly willing to do so.
