The story has 739 chapters, it will take quite a bit of time until all the 
metadata and chapters are retrieved due to the enforced sleep interval. You 
might have to wait 1-2 hours for the download to finish. This duration is so 
long because if the plugin requests data too fast from fanfiction.net the 
client will be temporarily blocked.

739 chapters?!  Good heavens.  The most I have in my library is one with 150 
chapters.

cryzed is right, that's going to take a looong time.  I've kicked it off in my 
calibre to see what happens.  Back in a few hours.

BTW, the % done is counted by *books*, not *chapters*.  So if you're only doing 
one book, it will stay at 1% until it's done.

It took just under 2 hours, but the story did eventually finish.

I might look into changing the % done to count by chapters.  But other than 
that, there isn't much to be done--ffnet *will* block you if you download much 
faster.  

It just takes a long time for lots of chapters.

FYI, I did go back and look at what it would take to make calibre report 
progress by chapter instead of story.

With the current multiprocess background job architecture it doesn't appear 
possible.
