Somebody please mirror and make a torrent #117

Somebody please try to collect all the files you can and make and seed a torrent of it, especially since some were removed. Seems dumb to rely on the script to keep working when the source is hostile (removing stuff, for example). Should have a backup for if one day it appears to have all disappeared from source.

Torrents are an amazing technology when they aren't being purposely neutered (private torrents) or opposed for near-sighted or misguided or otherwise stupid reasons

I found this on reddit: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1fD1csbKVIdfKvzLoLbIjnryae1u995YQ

EDIT: It seems to contain all the ebooks (both PDF and EPUB)

The author seemed to have removed the books from his Google Drive link.

See this issue for another link.
