For what it may be worth, I downloaded the Kindle version of this ebook ( filename was pg38497-images-kf8.mobi ) which calibre happily imported as a KF8/azw3 ebook. I then opened it with calibre's editor and clicked on the bug icon. It came up with quite a few errors. Most of the errors were "The linked resource '1256390145133242086_cover.jpg' does not exist" in the html files plus an Invalid id:73721-2dc923c5fc2b4a448ba58a66306d939e in part0041.html. That and an unused 00004.jpeg image which seemed to be a thumbnail for the cover image.

I clicked on the Try to correct all fixable errors automatically option and it correct all the errors except the 00004.jpeg file not being referenced error. After this I sent the fixed ebook to a PW4 with frirmware 5.15.1 and it opened happily. Though I'm not sure about a table of contents with overlength chapter titles shown in narrow columns.

Edit: attached a screenshot of one of the pages around chapter XI.
