Funny thing is I initially make a correction while reading, then the brain says 'huh' and I go back and re-read and see the mistake. LOL

ETA: Sad they didn't make more of a 'human' effort to edit these titles before they put them online. *shrug*
Sadly, pirated versions of many books have a reputation of having many fewer errors than the official versions, having been cleaned up by the pirates after the DRM was stripped. It seems like the paid versions of books should not be WORSE than the pirate versions if the publishers do not want do drive their customers away based on quality issues instead of just DRM issues.
