Just to explain a few things

for /r says scan the current directory and all sub directories
"%1" ensures that if the matched file name contains spaces there are no issues
%~p1 extracts the directory name
%~n1 extracts just the file name (with no path or extension)

AH... I could have simplified

Code:

for /r %1 in (*.original_epub) do 7za a "%~p1""%~n1".7z "%1"

to

Code:

for /r %1 in (*.original_epub) do 7za a "%~pn1".7z "%1"
