This one is from the First Ballentine Edition of Isaac Asimovs “The Robots of Dawn”.

I’ve got probably a dozen or so I’ve saved over the last few years of reading.

I would love to share more and others I come across if there’s interest.

I got mad. A year ago I bought an anthology of H.P. Lovecraft. It has many typos in the first half of the first volume.

Ah, I buy a lot of old scifi, so this is from 1984, little more excusable giving the lack of modernization. It’s gone past more than a few eyes, and yet I still caught it.

when kindle first came out you could submit corrections to books you read and there was a page you could go to to see all the fixes that had been accepted. i used it a lot idk why they removed it eventually.

That’s actually kinda neat.

I imagine that the transcribing isn’t perfect either, so I assume they introduced some too.

The amount of time they stated that he had five minutes… ;)
