I've been reading that book. One of the stories, Exile's End, has a large number of missing spaces between words. Since the stories are purportedly from 2020 it seems very unlikely to be OCR errors. I've spot checked the xhtml and in every case the space character was missing. Can someone check whether that story in the book directly from Tor has the same problem? A good regex to search for an example is Galbro[A-z].

BTW, I am personally annoyed that all the xhtml files in all the EPUBs that I have from amazon (only 4 so far) are 1 line with no end of line character.
