It looks like I'm onto a winner! Thanks for the honest review, Joe. <br /><br />[Rant mode on] It does seem that zombie books and novels seem to be more prone to spelling and grammatical errors than many other genre books and it really does annoy me. The thing is with typos is that it isn't the author's fault. These errors should be picked up by the publishers. Unfortunately, a lot of people do think it's the fault of the author and a spate of typos can reflect badly on him or her. By all means vent your wrath at such incompetence but do direct it at the proper guilty parties (publishers and their proof-readers) and not the innocent (authors). [Rant mode off]<br /><br />Oh, and thanks for the plug for my own blog. It's appreciated.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.com
