Hi Krafen

Thanks for posting the three issues to us. I've added all three as Pending issues and we'll look at them when we revise those particular books.

"Guilefully" is a word (at least according to Merriam-Webster), but
you're right that it doesn't sound right. "Gleefully" doesn't sound
right, either, because that doesn't really fit in with the Ogron drawing
a finger across his throat. Maybe "balefully"?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On page 133 of The Kingdoms of Terror, a sentence reads "We've heard
noises in the "Hell-hole" late at night,' he says guilefully,
'horrible noises."
I don't think "guilefully" is a word, and if it were it would mean
deceptively, which doesn't make sense in context. I suspect the word
should be "gleefully."
