Publisher's Description
From StoweMorris:
DESCRIPTION DownloadStory downloads and compiles all chapters of a fanfiction story off of some of the biggest fanfiction websites. Once downloaded, the entire story is available even when you are offline - great for installing on an iPhone or iPod to read on the go, or on your laptop or iPad on airplane trips. DownloadStory currently supports the following websites: FanFiction.net Portkey.org Sugarquill.net Checkmated.com PhoenixSong.net FictionAlley.org Sink Into Your Eyes (siye.co.uk) Ficwad.com SkyeHawke (archive.skyehawke.com) Twilighted.net Sabrina Online (chrisfoxx.com) Zig Zag Studios (zzstudios.com) Wonderful World of Makebelieve (squidge.org/peja/) crvboy.org ashwinder.sycophanthex.com ThePetulantPoetess.com WitchFics.org ObscurusBooks.org HOW IT WORKS Once you provide the web page address of the beginning of the story (the first chapter always works, and I try to support index pages as well), then the software will download each chapter in the background, saving the files into a temporary folder created on your desktop. Once the software has downloaded all of the chapters, it combines all of the them together into your preference of a html or text file. Finally it takes that compiled document and puts it in a folder called "New Stories" on your desktop. From there you are welcome to use it however you wish - I personally use Stanza (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/stanza/id284956128?mt=8 and http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/27887/stanza) to read them on my iPhone (stories saved in html format work best for this).

"Small program that does the job quickly."
Version: DownloadStory 1.4.1
Pros
Fast, works ok with fanfiction.net, small/compact program. Default save location is the desktop. Pro? Con?
Cons
Only txt (no formatting saved) and html (formatting saved) as output options. Would have liked to seen a .doc, .pdf, or rich text output.
Summary
It's better than copy/pasting every chapter. Great for quick on the go fan fic downloads.
