Speaking of which, the reviews of the Uplift War on Amazon mention bad formatting/spelling in the ebook version, but they're several years old. Can anyone vouch for the current "printing"?
I have the Uplift Omnibus, published by UK Hachette Digital, copyright 2012. Purchased from Kobo at the end of 2013.

It's missing the full stop (period) at the end of sentences. It's happening frequently enough that I stopped reading it when this happened yet again at the beginning of the second chapter. My tolerance for repeating errors of this nature in purchased books is getting very low.

And I just checked, Kobo hasn't updated the edition, so it still has these errors.
