Following up from the freshly completed Alice in Wonderland, here's Lewis Carrol's sequel - Through the Looking-Glass. I suspect this will fill up fast, so claim your favorite chapter now! (It did fill up fast--less than 24 hours!)

Chapters assigned as requested.

Through the Looking-Glass is fully subscribed!

Peter, please us the chapter numbers, but put the two chapters into one file. (Chapter 11 is only one sentence!) So I think it ought to go:

Code: Select all

Librivox intro
Chapter 11, Waking
It really was a kitten after all!
Chapter 12, Which Dreamed It?
Your majesty shouldn't purr so loud [...]
End of Chapter 12
End of Alice Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll
No "End of chapter 11" or preamble to twelve in between, since it will disrupt the flow of the story.
