Pronunciation

It's a decent story, with some twists and surprises. It's not got lot of battles or fights which is good as the tension from the sneaking and hiding is well paced and described well.

The problem is the narrator.... is it so difficult to find out how to pronounce something? 'Surjent' yeah I wondered what was being referred to, then realised it was Sergeant.... Honestly it's the one major issue with these books. Does nobody check them? Do the readers ask for clarification if they are unsure? I've had 'Nitch' for Niche, there are websites galore to help get this right.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
