    ... by Raymond E. Feist.

    Quite possibly the most errors I've ever read in a book (especially a paperback.)
    Whoever was subbing it should be shot.

    Decent enough read, but a bit anti-climatic.

    There were a few alright - and there are a few in his latest as well, Rides a Dread Legion, though not as many.

    Still, the number of errors pales in comparison to the number to be found in any of the Dune novels written by Herbert's bastard of a son - now that's some god awful editing. The publishers pretty much decided they'd sell enough books on the name alone and doesn't look like an editor even read through the manuscripts.

    Well they probably figured that if they let an editor near it, he'd have had to cut out all the words on all the pages for being utter crap.
    I do recall there being quite a few typos, etc. on those books I managed to stomach.
