I always feel so much better when I notice mistakes in big name books by big name publishers. (Not sure whether the appropriate smilie for that should be

or

.)
A little off-topic, because this wasn't in a blurb, but one I'm re-reading now has what is described as an autogyro shooting through a pass at "a hundred and twenty kilometers a second". It may be science-fiction set well in the future, but that's still a pretty impressive speed even for an advanced autogyro. This book was co-written by three famous sci-fi authors and published through Orbit, so that glitch passed a lot of eyes.
