    Great stories, lousy proofreading

    This is a great collection of short stories by Grand Master Andre Norton. I read them when they were first published, and time has not dimmed the quality at all.
    Normally I would give any book by Ms. Norton high marks; unfortunately due to the extremely shoddy proofreading and misspelled words there were portions of each tale that were completely unintelligible and hard to follow. I blame this on a rush to get the book into an e-reader format by the digital publisher.
    Enjoy the short stories and ignore the problems if you can!
