Oh man, I know - they're awful aren't they! They just leap out at me from the page, though I can't remember any offhand. And it's always the character names - don't the proofreaders notice that when they're reading the book all the way through?!?

oooh, I haven't noticed any character names being mispelled... I'd be interested if you found any!!!

Hehe, I'll keep an eye out :) I can't see the page 190 one mind, though perhaps I've got a different edition.. (this really irritates me, particularly because it seems to happen more in SW books than anywhere else!)

It's on my floor. I'll check it when I get home.

Gavin's name is misspelled "Gavon" (I'm pretty sure that's what it was). I think it's toward the end of "Wedge's Gamble." Drove me so crazy (Gav's my favorite character) that I corrected it with a pen.

Bravo! I've always felt the urge, but I'm too much of a librarian to actually be able to deface my own books!

bottom of page 190 second word is supposed to be "against" but it is just "agains"

Only the books that I read over and over again get marked. I can't even mark textbooks.
