The book: Paul Fussell's The Great War and modern Memory. I bought it from Kobo as an epub2, so I didn't need to convert it when I put it into Calibre.

I've gotten about 90 pages in and whammo I can no longer read the book.

I could see the book when I plugged it into my PC (My Computer). So I deleted it from there and deleted the Calibre version (oh well so much for the parts of the book that I'd highlighted, eh!).

If this is the case, the error checking in the calibre editor might show the error. Or Sigil might if you prefer that. An epub-to-epub conversion will probably fix it.

Nope, nothing that I've done has fixed it.

Emailing you ....

Okay, so I've opened it on my Playbook, Kobo app (kepub version), and all works as it should. (Well I haven't used highlighting and I won't in this format)

So it's narrowed to either the epub or the highlighting or this latest version.
