I can read the books, also edit.

Example with metadata.opf (other authors).
That is the metadata backup file that can be used if the DB needs repair.

Something/someone has seriously messed with your Calibre Library

But it is easy to repair this particular (just takes some time to run).

Right click the Library Icon: Library Maintenance: Check metadata backup status: Click the Queue button (and go do something else for a bit. Rate is about 1 title per 3 seconds)
