I've almost finished Verdant Skies as an ePub on my ECO reader, and have noticed some things which may be typos or may be problems with my reader.
- When one opens Chapter 2 the heading is President?s Arrival. On websites the ? usually indicates that a character is present which is not recognised, so I would like to know whether this character is in the original text and whether it is replaced by ? in other ePub readers.
- Throughout the book on my ECO reader CEO is shown as Ceo, COO as Coo, and EO as Eo.
- The phrase 'course heavy beard' occurs where the context calls for 'coarse heavy beard'
- The phrase 'He's tough' occurs where the context calls for 'She's tough' - the conversation is about Calvin's wife.
- A piece of luggage is described as 'autonomic', which I'm more used to seeing when discussing physiology. 'Autonomous' doesn't really work either, since the luggage is governed by a device held by its owner.
- In one of the later chapters Julian's part of a conversation is in italics for no obvious reason.
I hope this helps, and I particularly like to know whether President?s Arrival is seen with other ePub readers.
