Near the end of Chasm City there were two word errors that stood out. I know I questioned one in Kiln People and the list thought the words were okay. Just wondering how many errors get into finished books.



Lots. I think it's rare for a book not to have any typos these days. I think it was Harlan Ellison who wrote a big rant about the decline of proofreaders and sub-editors.


And what about the grammatical errors that get through nowadays?
