As much as Authors would like to see the finished product as they saw it in their mind there always seems to be a loss of communication between final edit and production. My book is no different.


I've noticed a few errors in the book, some minor and at least one major (mis-titled chapter). I've listed those on this page as I located them. However if you find an error not listed on this page please feel free to contact and let me know.


I will add it to this list, give credit to any contributors, and pass it on to my publisher for correction on the next run.
