Subject: Another small mistake in 'The Cauldron of Fear'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In numbered section 121 of 'The Cauldron of Fear', the passage ends thus. 'All 
they see is a blur of green as you duck under their crossed halberds and 
disappear into the teeming.'
'Teeming' is a description which doesn't hold in synchronisation with the rest 
of the sentence unless it's followed by an object e.g. 'crowd', a sentence 
can't end that way. So obviously the sentence is unfinished, I would think that 
the author may have meant to finish the sentence with 'mass', or something like 
that I'd figure.

Hi again Sergio

This annoying problem does not appear in the original text of the book, so it is something we managed to introduce ourselves. :-(

Checking the book, the word missing at the end of the sentence is "throng". We have fixed our source files and the fix will be in the online edition when we re-release Book 9.

Once again, thanks for reporting these issues to us. We want our editions to be of the highest quality, and reports like these help us towards that goal.

For Sommerlund and the Kai!
