Ray,
I have not commented on this thread, or the threads in the past
discussing the same thing and I know you are upset at the moment, but
quite honestly the editing in the last five books you've released has
gone from bad to worse. Most of us here are lifelong readers and the
mistakes are very apparent to us, the question remains why are they not
to the team of editors and proof readers employed at Harper and Collins,
it is what they get paid to do!
If you have an email address for H/C where we can file our complaints,
please list it and I will direct my comments directly to H/C.
Thanks,
Shelley

OK, can we stop this please? Even Webster's Third Unabridged has typos
in it. Nothing is prefect.
And each publisher has their own internal system, so the above remark is
totally pointless.
I'm sorry, but this is starting to piss me off. I feel crapy enough
about this without folks jumping in with 100% gratuitous remarks. Some
of you are posting as if we didn't care about the product. MY name is
on the cover, folks. OK?
Best, R.E.F.
