Good morning, I stand corrected: riddled is too extreme but there are enough errors that it began to bother me. I am reading the books via Kindle. Again, let me say how much I am enjoying the series. I am reading the fourth book now and I can start highlighting the errors and let you know what they are, if you want. They are mostly incorrect use of subjective and objective pronouns and redundancies such as "equally as." Your editor should have caught these.
When I see an error (or what I think is an error) on my Kindle, I submit a report through the app. It allows you to also suggest the correction. Aside from very rare grammatical errors, as an architect, I have a pet peeve with many, many instances in various other books that use 'cement' when it should be 'concrete'. I submit that as a spelling error. 😁
I didn’t realize you could submit errors. Thanks for telling me.
Yes, you can hold your finger over the word or phrase to highlight it, and then a menu of options appears. Click on the three dots to the right for more options, and there is an option to report content error.
I could not find a way to do this on my iPad. I have highlighted all the errors I have found. Every time the word equally is used, as is added!which is redundant and wrong. Most uses of objective and subjective pronouns are wrong. I enjoy the books but this is something that a decent copywriter could correct.
