well, do you want these books as fast as possible? kcf Send a noteboard - 29/11/2009 08:24:47 PM
Tor rushes these books to press as fast as reasonably possible - mostly due to fan desire. A typical book would be going through the editing process for about twice as long. Keep in mind that the book is also twice to three times longer than a typical book. So a few will slip through.

I could care less about a few typos and other errors - particularly since it means getting the book a few months earlier than we would otherwise.

Yes. The editor in me can't help but notice them. They weren't that numerous so I said nothing. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 30/11/2009 04:40:28 PM 279 Views
