When I added A Novel Way to Die to my content at Amazon.ca this morning, there were no other options. Now I see Download available in additional formats and I tried the epub download.

And yes, the ePub structure is pretty ugly. Every xthml file has it's own stylesheet with individual style names, the styles are extremely repetitive though for me, the indented paragraph is only indented 1.5em.

I killed 5 minutes doing so cleanup in Sigil including merging all the stylesheets into one stylesheet and using calibre's editor to merge similar styles. Simplified the heck out of things. The only items epubcheck was not happy with was the two epub:type="" items in the nav document.

OTOH, on my KLC, the original version renders okay though the dropcaps are nasty since I use a relatively large font size for reading.
