I can't remember if I noticed any spelling or grammar mistakes. I was probably distracted by all the italics.
But I've noticed them in other books, not necessarily this series. I always wonder if I should write to the publisher to tell them. I wonder if it's a waste. First of all with zillions of people reading, somebody else has probably already done it. Secondly, I have to think somebody at the publisher/editors find these after the fact as they read the finished product and slate them for correction. And lastly, I wonder if they would even bother to correct small mistakes like that until a new printing happens or when the format changes from, say, trade paperback to mass market. Or even then. Anybody know?

The book wasn't proof read very well

In my copy of LoC, men channel Saidar in stead of Saidin about two out of three times... Annoying. *NM*

Not a mistake. She's used that term before. IIRC, Winter's Heart, just after they arrive in Caemlyn. *NM*

Yes. The editor in me can't help but notice them. They weren't that numerous so I said nothing. *NM*
