I created a table with 4 columns and then just put the first several chapters in column 1, the second in column 2, etc. so I ended up with a TOC that looks like:
Cover
Dedication
Chapters:
1 11 21 31
2 12 22 32
3 13 23 33
4 14 24 34
5 15 25 35
6 16 26 36
and on...
About the Author
I was thinking that having a multi-column TOC like you did would be , Then I thought of having to hand link all those files

If you always named chapters the same way (eg Ch001.xhtml), a borrow of a previous work would get things moving quite quickly
