I got this for $9.99 at 100% micropay from Fictionwise and am not sure what to do with it. I ran mu usual ereader liberator on it, and was about to tidy up the HTML (a laborious process but generally necessary) when I saw it had images. So I imported it to Calibre as is, and the resulting 'book' is about 1000 pages. Surely that can't be right?

So, are the images vital? Because it they are not, I can strip down the HTML and remove the extraneous line breaks. I'll get plain, but clean text. If they are, then the book will have to stay as is and be 1000 pages, and that seems a little unreasonable

Advice?
