Calibre sent 40 books. You killed it at the last book.

The books that it did send now have no covers. I turned the option off and connected wirelessly again and it didn't resend the covers.

When calibre sends a book, it includes all the metadata except the cover. The cover is sent as a second step when "syncing metadata".
Unfortunately, the last_modified date in the metadata that comes with the book is the right one, so in later connects calibre doesn't know that it must resend metadata. I have fixed this so that when CC receives a book it sets the last_mod date to long ago. It will get reset back during the sync metadata, if that happens, or the next connect if it doesn't happen.

All the tags still appear to be there though. The connect seemed to be too quick so I tried connecting again and it took a while before it came back and tried to send metadata for all 884 of my books. I then got a connection error in Calibre - CC thought I was still connected.

I see the network failure in CC's debug log. Unfortunately the calibre debug log has no useful information, so I don't know what happened from calibre's side. From CC's side something closed the network connection.
One very strange thing in the log. In the middle of negotiating with calibre during the second connect, you went to look at some book details. I didn't think this was possible and I can't see how to do it. Do you remember anything about what you did or what happened?
