I'm in the office right now without the files, so I can't list specific examples. But I'm sure I'm not the first to have seen this. The Tad Williams books aren't the first time I have seen that either.
Yes, I've seen this very issue in eBook series. The problem as I recall is that the older eBooks are worse and then the newer eBooks are better. But none are good enough and all need editing.
