Great content: Poorly formatted. No page or chapter numbers

I really like the contents of this book. It's inspiring and uplifting, especially with respect to the hope of correcting the dismal political, social and economic situations we now endure with such angst.
The relatively poor rating is due to the FORM of the book. VERY poorly written and formatted. TINY print.
No page numbers, Multiple spelling, grammatical and layout problems.
No chapters. No publisher, Bogus name. C'mon, pal: Get it into a professional format!
I worked as a technical writer, so maybe I'm being harsh, but these presentation errors just seem to drive me crazy,
as I would have been fired submitting such material to print. Poorly self-published.

A lot of people in my class liked having this book b/c it was like having a  portable, pocket-sized Netter's atlas with clinical correlations (seems like a good idea right?)

BUT be warned, there are some CRAZY formatting problems on some of the pages.  I've never seen anything like it in a book before.  Something weird must have happened to their computer during the editing process, b/c certain words will be cut-off or some pages will be close to gibberish.

If you don't believe me, check out page 85.  "nur to disc initiates inflaator process"  or "iscoenicpain" are two examples of sentences on this one page.

Thankfully, this doesn't effect the entire book.  It's only a few pages out of the ~650 total pages.  I think the book is still an excellent resource to have, but I like to know the flaws of things I buy before I buy them.  Hopefully the publishers will see this and fix the next edition!

Great content but many of the pictures are missing. The text has many references to photos that are not depicted in the Kindle format. This is very annoying.

Great content, however the two copies I received (original and replacement) are missing a few pieces.  There are pages, but nothing has been printed on them.
The content is fun, lots of background, fun things to look for and photos for many of the items mentioned.
The publisher sent me a replacement quite quickly.

For 5.99, the price is fair.  The content of the book is also excellent.  Indeed, the authors have done an excellent job of explaining everything.  My biggest criticism is the formatting of the book.  Why did the authors (editors?) decide to format the book so that it wasn't available on every device?  For example, I cannot read the book on my Kindle voyage; or can I read it from my Chrome browser.  Indeed, the only device that I have that works is my phone.  This is unfortunate!  I read books to gain information.  In order to do so the method of reading should be as unobtrusive as possible.  Being forced to read the book on my phone was very inconvenient.  Hopefully the authors rectify this in the future as the book's content really is worth reading.

The content and subject matter of this book is great, with one caveat. This version of the book on Amazon is incredibly poorly printed compared the the versions I have seen in stores. Type appearing at large sizes is ok, but the majority of the body copy is dismal. It's a great manual for type specimens in theory, but the quality of the printing nearly defeats the purpose of owning this book.

This is a great book; unfortunately the format of this kindle edition is useless and unreadable.  Some pages are simply scanned in as pictures.  We need a proper, quality electronic version of this series.

Five stars for content, 2 for formatting.  At the very beginning of the book,after Abhorsen has brought the baby back from the dead, he's asked what her name will be.  In my edition (this edition) the text says:
"Sabriel With Bonus Material."

Hello?

I love the story.  I took time off from work to read it. Yes. I did:)  but the Kindle copy has poor quality. Missing pages from first part of the book. Chapter 44 and 45 is the worst.  I wish I have option to replace it.

The only reason why I'm not giving this book a five star rating is because the formatting is hard to read on my phone... Other than that it has great content.

It is a shame that the kindle version is so badly formatted and unreadable. The content itself, is good and helpful, though.

Content is excellent, the book binding is bad, and the pages fell out

I rarely do this, but I am primarily reviewing the quality of the ebook. The commentary itself, and its content, is fantastic. In fact, the ebook itself is very well formatted overall. I have one problem. It should not say "Contains real pages" on the amazon page when it does not. Months ago I wrote to amazon and the publisher asking that this error be corrected. Since it has not been addressed, I thought I should warn those who might want to use this text for research. As a seminarian, I cannot use this text for papers because there is no way to cite it properly. If the page had said this would be the case, I would have hesitated to buy it in an electronic format.

Excellent content,and this book is a great resource for certain individual part identification. However, the formatting of the information is where this book really struggles.  Some of the tables and charts continue over to new pages, while still having pertinent information on the previous page.  Sometimes an image will be presented on one page and the paragraph referencing that image will be on another page completely or on the reverse page.  I get that they had a lot of information to cover in a limited amount of pages, but the formatting is really head scratching at times.  It would have been better to publish this in 2 separate volumes with proper formatting instead.

Great to see this classic in eBook format (Im not going to review see paper version for a review).

To make is more usable please modify the CONTENTS page to include links that jump to the correct section.

The Hebrew names in the elemental hierarchies appears ABOVE rather than BESIDE the English.

4th knowledge lecture where are the geomancy figures?  They are missing.

So buyer beware heaps of issues due to back of quality checking.

While the content was very fascinating, the kindle version was terrible.  Most equations and tables were not legible; therefore, difficult to understand.  It is a shame that Amazon actually sells it in such a poor form.  Is there a way to exchange it for a printed version?  If it wasn't for the Kindle version, I would prob. have given a 5 star.

The content is good, but the formatting in the Kindle edition is *really* shoddy: deeply nested LINQ expressions in Times New Roman with all indentation removed. Trying to decipher the formatting is distracting from understanding the otherwise excellent content.
