If the original code opened in Sigil and passed muster for well-formed-ness, then chances are, you deleted a necessary html opening tag. I still would like it if that didn't cause a crash, but it's very possible that it did.
The "<" had been in place for at least two edits.

I just had more crashes - It happened when I was in book view at the time of opening the next book. I went back to the previous book and repeated in code view - no crash.

I also tested with two books - one with a html file for each chapter and one with a single html file for all the chapters. The results were the same - book view bad - code view good. The only noticeable difference was the single file book took much longer to save. (I know it is better to use multiple files, but did not want to correct manually.)
