Spelling mistakes and/or typographical errors I found in leading publications

[Justloadit]

(By the way I did copy and paste this post into word 2010 ... did a spelling and grammar check ... this was the result )

You can enable spell check in 'theforumsa', will save you the task of copying and pasting. Can't remember how I done it.

Our own South African books

I'm somewhat ashamed in so far as the only South African books that I read are non fiction. In 2018 I read Mandy Wiener's "Killing Kebble," and Sean Newman, Peter Piegl and Karyn Maughans' "Lolly Jackson." Fairly recently I read Bruce Witfield's "The upside of down." Besides being excellent reads, I found no spelling mistakes, typographical errors and grammatical errors at all!

It seems our South African editor's have the right stuff

Maybe the editors are still old school.
I see you like Jack Reacher. A favourite of mine also. Have you read any of Deon Meyer's books? I'm sure you will enjoy him.

I'm currently reading Lee Child's collection of Jack Reacher short stories entitled "No Middle Man." It gives great insight into Jack Reacher's childhood such as growing up on various military bases around the world. It actually enables the reader to understand how Jack Reacher the action adventure hero became who he is in the rest of Lee Child's books.

No, I have read any books by Deon Meyer. Tell you what, I'll get one within the next 30 days and revert with a book review.

I done a considerable amount of reading from June 2017 to date. I literally read all the novels of Wilbur Smith, Frederick Forsyth, Tom Clancy, Lee Child(with the exception of the book I am now reading), and Ian Flemming.
All Ian Flemming novels are now available as open source online in PDF format

I’ve attached a PDF of Dr NO from this link, so that you can see that it works.

Off the cuff, my top twelve from these authors are:

1. Lee Child: Personal
2. Lee Child: Worth Dying For
3. Lee Child: Never go back
4. Frederick Forsyth: The Day of the Jackal
5. Frederick Forsyth: The Kill List
6. Federick Forsyth: The Afgan
7. Tom Clancy: Without Remorse
8. Wilbur Smith: Those in peril
9. Wilbur Smith: Vicious Smith
10. Wilbur Smith: Predator
11. Robert Ludlum: The Bancroft Strategy
12. Robert Ludlum: The Scorpio Illusion

We seem to like the same thrillers. I used to read Ian Flemming's James Bond at school and saw all the movies. Ludlum, Smith and jack Reacher. I had to laugh when I saw the little man Tom Cruise cast as Jack Reacher in the movie!

You may then enjoy The Tattooist of Auswich by Heather Morris and the follow up, Cilka's Journey. Based on a true story.

A very good morning to you Blurock,

Trusting that you are well, and that life is treating you kindly!


I obtained two Deon Meyers books: Thirteen Hours and Fever.


I have my reading cut out for me for the next 4 months. I’m currently reading both Mississippi Blood by Gregory Iles and I’m near completion of lee Child’s No Middle Name. I also have Felix Francis’ Refusal.



I’ve also made a quality decision to reread Mikhail Gorbachev’s Perestroika.


Somewhere in between I’ll try Deon’s Meyer’s two books
