I hadn't had a chance to look until this morning, but after seeing the title, I realized I only had read the first two books in the series last year; I was not aware a third was out, and it sounds right up my alley, so I bought it.

I can confirm that ConvertLIT does have a problem exploding this lit file, however, Calibre's lit2oeb command line function works perfectly. There is indeed something about this file that the other two did not exhibit that prevents a straight forward conversion. I'm uncertain if Penguin has done it intentionally or not, I'll have to be wary of future Penguin purchases in either case. Perhaps the fourth book, due out tomorrow, will be my next test--hopefully Fictionwise gets it.
