Thanks so much for the response and your work on Calibre, Kovid! That did the trick and made the book open-able, however the formatting is now completely off and the table of contents are broken. I wonder what's going on with the book and why it was brought in as an HTMLZ, as I got the book directly from Amazon and just wanted to use Calibre to strip the DRM from it. No other book that I've gotten from Amazon has come in as an HTMLZ file. I just went to download it again to make sure it wasn't corrupted the first time and it downloads as TPZ file which Calibre imports as an HTMLZ. When I have Amazon push the version directly from the cloud to my Kindle it shows up fine. I downloaded the file on Kindle for Mac and found it in the folder as mobi. However, when I have Calibre push it to the Kindle as mobi or convert the mobi to an AZW3 and push that the Kindle still hangs and requires a force restart. Something is obviously up with the file itself.
