Meh, if you really want to talk about crappy formatting, I direct you to the Deathstalker series by Simon R. Green.

It was one of my favorites when I was younger, so I bought the kindle versions for a reread... and they are terrible. The first book has basic OCR errors (like occasionally calling one of the main characters Haze instead of Hazel) and contains no spacing for scene breaks.

The second book starts off better, but then is missing an entire paragraph of dialogue in a critical scene... just completely cut off and replaced with "***."


BTW: There is a U.K. only ebook collection of the six Joe Abercrombie books set in the FL universe. The formatting on it is great.
