Do it and whilst you're at it, email the author to let them know.

Tell people to not buy the ebook version and point them to the print version instead. The author will lose more in the long run if customers buy the book and have a similar experience to you.

Whilst the author may not be able to do anything directly, they can at least nag their publisher that sales are been lost and reputation tarnished.
