Using ffmpeg to split an Audible audio-book into chapters?

I've been following this answer to use ffmpeg to convert and play some of my Audible audio-books in LinuxMint. Each book is a single source-file, but I've noticed that ffmpeg lists all the chapters at the start of conversion.



Is there a way to get ffmpeg to split the the book into chapters - convert each chapter into separate files (split by chapters)? Preferably by ffmpeg alone, but using other programs/scripts (together with ffmpeg) is also an option...



(I've seen a few other answers about splitting DVDs into chunks of even lengths or into chapters (using ffmpeg and a python-script), but that's not quite what I'm after, so I'm hoping it was a simpler way of doing it...)
