In some schools, Alas, Babylon is on the required reading list (we used to keep a stock of it when I worked at B&N). It's a shame the book isn't getting a more thorough going-over.

I've argued the Big 5 deservedly charge more due to their editing and so forth. This book is put out by HarperCollins.

The sentence you quoted was "The engine started and Randy turned away to face the thousand-year night." in both my original copy and this copy.
You're right. I pasted the same sentence twice out of laziness.

The correct sentence in my copy is "The engine started and Randy turned away to face the thousand-year night."
