15 uploaded again, 17.9MB 19:39. I hope it's the right one this time
16 corrected and uploading now 17.4MB 19:03
Sorry this is taking so long If I'd realised that it was three books I'd have put a later due date on it.

It just seems potentially unfair landing you two with a longer job than expected Still things should go faster and the third book has less chapters, I think.

Tim,
Don't worry about this taking a while. The pace has been just about as fast I can handle.
I'm enjoying the book and I certainly don't mind hearing more of it.
