I have to nod in agreement with HarryT on this one. If (either in the sample) or the blurb at Amazon (or elsewhere) there are a lot of spelling and or grammar mistakes it's a definite turn off. If the author can't even spell word correctly or they use the wrong word i.e. revile where they meant reveal for example, it's a good sign that the book isn't one that I would really enjoy reading. The premise of the story may be intriguing but if I have to decode the text in order to read it instead of just reading what is on the page where is the enjoyment?
