Seriously, I listen to a lot of books with egregious mispronunciations (non-fiction, major publishers, etc.). I only wish this were part of the process!
I'm still shuddering at the biography of John Quincy Adams where the word "quay" was pronounced "kway." No, I'm not making that up. And it's not even as if the narrator got it wrong once and someone clued him in so he could fix it subsequently. It was consistent throughout the book.
