mobi/prc and ePub
The five books are:
A Christmas Carol (1843)
The Chimes (1844)
The Cricket on the Hearth (1845)
The Battle of Life (1846)
The Haunted Man (1848)

I downloaded this omnibus in epub last night and started reading a little (couldn't help it seeing it sitting there in my reader...new titles are just too tempting!) and it looks well formatted so far.

That's probably exactly what happened. The worst is when you actually pay for a book and it's badly formatted, but the free ones are sometimes atrocious. That's why I love the library here so much; I know I can expect quality.
