Poor editing?

I've read a couple of ebooks so far and it strikes me that the editing for some of these ebooks are really horrendous! The most common error is two words combined. In one book, Skinny Boy, the word "wildy in" was combined to make 'wildyin". When I first read it, I didn't realise it was two words and had marked it to look up in the dictionary when I get the chance.

I wonder what your experiences are. Are ebooks often poorly edited or perhaps the process of going from printed book to ebook leads to some errors?
