I've been too involved in reading it to notice anything else although I did notice the original "Te" at the start of the Prologue... and the hardcover has it printed correctly.
Mr Ploppy is partially correct about proofreaders being an early casualty of making savings but this dates back decades to when spellcheckers were though to be a good replacement... and weren't resulting in errors in pbooks long before the main ebook revolution...

Even when they are converted from an original digital source they will still need proof reading. Even more so when they are converted from a paper source. In the hardcover, do they use some sort of embelishment on the first word that would explain why that one went wrong?
