    My favorite book of all time is a Sci Fi novel called Santiago: Myth of the far future by Mike Resnick. Think Firefly meets The good, the bad & the ugly.

    The subtle art of not giving a fxck by Mark Manson.

    The book is very insightful - It teaches you the difference between the things that are your fault and the things that are your responsibility. It also shows you that you worry about many things that simply aren't worth the bother.

    Spelling mistakes in leading publications
    Over the years I have come across numerous spelling mistakes, typographical mistakes and grammar relates mistakes in leading publications. I started to write them down from June 2019.
    1: Details of publication: Wilbur Smith: Predator: Orion Mintaka (UK)Ltd:2016: First published in Great Britain: Harper Collins Publishers:2016 Page 84, sentence13



    It reads as follows: ‘’He wanted people to know that however he might look now, he’d started out as a blue-collar kid, working his way up from nothing by ability, determination and damned hard work.”

    It should read:

    He started out as a blue-collar kid working his way up from nothing but ability, determination and damned hard work

    2. Details of publication: Clive Clusser: Sahara: Harper Collins Publishers:1 London Bridge Street, London, SEI9gF:2017age 30

    Background: Kitty Mannock’s plane crashes in the desert, at this juncture, there are no ships!!!!!

    Sentence 20

    Reads as follows:

    “She decided she had to make an attempt at reaching a village or the motor track. It was suicide to stay near the ship.”

    It should read:

    She decided she had to make an attempt at reaching a village or the motor track. It was suicide to stay near the plane.’”

    2.1 Same book, same author and publisher: Page 35:Sentence 1-3

    It reads:

    “After travelling through the desert for days or weeks, seeing no animals, meeting no humans, civilization, no matter how tiny or primitive, comes as a stunning surprise.”

    Rational: there is a comma after ‘humans,’ then the noun civilisation.

    It should read

    After traveling through the desert for days or weeks, seeing no animals, meeting no human civilization, no matter how tiny or primitive, comes as a stunning surprise

    2.2 Same book, publisher and author: Page 36: Sentence 2

    Typographical error despite the safety of direct speech. It is accepted that a speaker in direct speech can speak in slang or broken English, however, this does not apply in the following context as the speaker Major Ian Fairweather is well spoken!

    It reads:

    “The death blow came about forty years go when its wells began to dry up.”

    It should read:

    The death blow came about forty years ago when its wells began to dry up.”

    2.3 Same book, same author and publisher: Page 112: Sentence 25

    It reads:

    “Very considerate of then to do as my thought waves demand.”

    It should read:

    Very considerate of them to do as my thought waves demand.

    3.1 Clive Cussler: The Chase(Michael Joseph) Penguin Book, Penguine Group, 80 Strand, London WC2r ORL, England, 2007:Page 11, Sentence 7

    It reads

    “One suspender held up torn and ragged pants that were stuffed into scuffed and worn boots that should been thrown in the trash gully behind the town long ago.”

    It should read

    “One suspender held up torn and ragged pants that were stuffed into scuffed and worn boots that should have been thrown in the trash gully behind the town long ago.

    3.2 Clive Cussler: Spartan Gold: Penguine Books ltd. England:2009: Page 325

    It reads:

    “I agree, but they’ll still have the same the dilemma.”

    It should read

    “I agree, but they’ll still have the same dilemma.”
