Well it is only the first letter of the chapter. As odd as it looks, I'd rather have that then the formatting problems with mobi which IMO are worse. Do the other books have the same problem with chapter start formatting (in mobi format)?
In ePub the drop cap looks fine BTW. For experimental purposes I converted the ePub with kindlegen (after editing the source a bit) and got both mobi and KF8 looking perfect. But the point is, they should have had some quality control. There are just a few of us Kindle users out there. Even if all they did was use Kindle Previewer they would have seen the problems right away.
The real problem in this case is that each book is 'personalized' with your Pottermore account info. So assuming Pottermore fixes the formatting, I don't know how they can push it out to people who have already bought the book and sent it to Amazon.
