No, the key is the directories for the file names are present, but the 
files themselves are either missing all together, or placed in the wrong 
subdirectories.  who said the files were intact?
If in
  for example,
d:\stories\abandoned\series\storyname\
I actually found the file associated with that story name...we would not be 
having this discussion.
Instead as I sought to explain pkunzip created the directory and 
sub directory structure but either placed the files in the wrong 
directories, or did not place them at all.  I suspect the former, when 
unziped the entire directory is about 3 gig in size.
  However locating things in the wrong place assuming that is the real 
problem would be difficult to say the least.
I wonder if pkunzip would correct the issue with a fresh copy of the 
archive?
