Thanks for this book. I just finished it and quite enjoyed it.

I noticed a couple of problems in the formatting that you might want to correct if you have the time. First, on my device (the Cybook), the letters with accents came out as Cyrillic letters. I am pretty sure I have seen the Cybook do accents properly before, so I imagine there must have been some localization thing that went wrong. Also, there were some paragraph breaks that should not have been there. It was most evident in quotations where people would be speaking and a new paragraph would start without a quote mark before it. Finally, I found the dashes a bit strange, especially in places where there would be a comma followed by a dash... That just doesn't look right.

Anyway, I thank you again for the great book. I hope this comment doesn't come across as too critical -- it was certainly possible to get past these slight flaws in the presentation.
