I got a proper epub that loaded & worked just fine both in Calibre and FBReader on my tablet. Is this issue connected with certain publishers and is there any way to tell? I do still have a supposedly DRM free epub sitting in my Kobo account that no matter how many times I try cannot be downloaded, just gives me a broken link. And yes, it is a TOR book, this one to be exact: http://store.kobobooks.com/en-ca/boo...g&PageNumber=1

Apparently they can't even find it, according to the error page that pops up whenever I click the download button. Oh well, at least it was free; I'd sure hate to have this happen with a purchased book.
Earlier today, I added that eBook to my library and I cannot download it. What country is your Kobo account set to?
