If it's such a mess, then why didn't you reject it, citing poor quality?

The Dead Suffer Too is a mess. If someone really wants it, just take about four hours of time and save yourselves all the torture. I downloaded that book and the dead are not the only ones suffering here.

I understand tahat, but they may just need page

Dead Suffer Too; and Out of the Red Shadow sound as if
they should be in. But I haven't looked at them.
