I called John on the phone last evening and got to the bottom of his problem. The fact is he messed up his naming conventions, and that's why they were out of order. Instead of for example chapter 08 he had it written as chapter 0eight. Read it closely folks to know what I am talking about. It was an honest mistake. You must read it by character to fully understand. I had him send me the files and it only took a couple of seconds to figure it out.
