These books retail at $4.99+ with FW coupons I usually pay $2.50 or below that. I know they are not proofread. There is missing quotes, punctuation and words that make no sense. Still I buy them up like hotcakes. It's because modern HQ titles are just so formulated and uncreative most of the time.
besides, you can have fun fixing the really crappy stuff...er...if you approach it with the right...um...positive attitude
