Kindle sucks.

The first ebook was just like the paperbacks that came before it. There were lots of pictures. It was frustrating that pictures look so pathetic on a Kindle. This book is different. There are fewer pictures and they are lame compared to pictures in previous books which makes me think that Watt knew that the pictures would suck on a Kindle anyway.

In Chapter 3 there a discussion of languages that Franz speaks and that he doesn't speak Portuguese very well. Later that discussion is repeated almost word for word but with a different response at the end from Nigel. Somebody, anybody, even casually reading the manuscript should have caught this.

In Chapter 6 a horse is generally smart enough not to eat buttercups. At least they don't do it more than once.
