Next chapter in the saga of poor ebook formatting

Today's entry: my copy of "Best Served Cold", by Joe Abercrombie.

Inconsistent use of italics in the flashback chapters: Sometimes italic, sometimes not, sometimes it shifted from italic to non-italic midway through a paragraph

Inconsistent gaps underneath chapter headings. Some extra large, others smaller. Went into the html and found some chapters had extra line breaks under the chapter headings, while others did not. No rhyme or reason to the discrepancy.

Lastly, consistently much too large gaps between scene breaks. This one might have been an artifact of my wholesale Calibre conversions, though I've never had this happen before. Usually it is the other way around - that the scene break gaps are removed.

Once again I am thankful that removing DRM is so trivial - otherwise I couldn't have corrected the publisher's sloppy mistakes.
