Problem converting specific .azw4 file

Hello, I have a problem converting this Kindle book.

https://www.amazon.com/Microbiology-...s=dave+wessner

Whenever I try to convert it to a PDF I get this:
Spoiler:

"calibre, version 3.6.0 (win32, embedded-python: True)
Conversion error: Failed: Convert book 1 of 1 (Microbiology, 2nd Edition)

Convert book 1 of 1 (Microbiology, 2nd Edition)

Why is this? I can convert any other azw4 file just fine but this one always seems to fail.

You can't convert a file with DRM on it either. That's probably your problem.

I have the DeDRM Plugin though. DRM gets removed when I add any other kindle book except for this one.
