The following book cannot be loaded: https://mises.org/library/leftism-de-sade-and-marx-hitler-and-marcuse (epub)

There is no error message.

If I had to guess, I'd expect it has some odd file structure that illuminsight cannot handle. I don't have time to look into this right now but I'll try and get around to it. Thanks for the report.

The following information can maybe help: Note that a possibly important xml file [package.opf] in the epub is of version 1.1 - I don't know whether this is handled on the app's side.

I don't think I ever tested for v1 so that could be it.

Try an ebook converter like the one in Calibre to convert to a newer EPUB version that should work in illuminsight.
