The Official Brent Weeks Network

For fans of The Night Angel Trilogy and fantasy author Brent Weeks

So, i recently reread the trilogy (i think thats the. . . fourth time?) And when i was home rummaging around for the books i, to my dismay, couldn't find the third installment - Beyond The Shadows. I searched high and low to no avail, so i decided to purchase a new copy which i shall guard with my life.

So, i read BTS between my plane ride from Edinburgh to Dublin yesterday and most of today while i lounged about on the sofa, and i came to a point. . page 440 to be correct (paperback) and was somewhat confused. The next page was 489. . . (pause for impact. . ) i know! right? so, i checked the book (brand new) and no, no pages have fallen out. So i continued my reading (skipping 49 pages. . )
I reach page 536 then again, my next page is 489. .

Don't get me wrong, this isn't a rant, this is more letting people know and letting the powers at be aware that something has gone wrong in the printing process!
Purchased in Edinburgh, Scotland from my local Waterstones branch.

Ciao :-)

book binding issue. Fun! anyone else have this issue? I know you probably didn't do this, but did you contact the store? Wondering if it is just a fluke or if it was the whole print run.

Eoin,
Thanks for the heads up. Will you please look on the copyright page early in the book to see what printing your book is. Then we can let Orbit know the specifics.
