This was released quickly. I wasn't even looking for it yet. They must have had Grover Gardener working on it right away. It has now been purchased.

I'd cancelled my Audible subscription a couple of months ago as I have a backlog and nothing that I knew of coming up. Restarted it for this.

Listening to Knot right now. I just love how Grover narrates your books.
Have the typo fixes gone up? I'm not seeing them on my kindle
Karenhunt wrote: "Have the typo fixes gone up? I'm not seeing them on my kindle"Huh. I'm not either. The list of 6 was sent in just a couple of weeks after the e-novella went up.
I thought this stuff refreshed automagically now... I'll have to cross-check.
If not, I don't know how to force a refresh. Does anyone else?
Ta, L.
(...For the curious who want to check, there's a typo in the first sentence, a missing "the" before "duke of Orbas decamped" Or possibly not, depending on one's edition.)
The ones I found are not fixed and I also downloaded onto a second device
Thanks for letting us know about the audiobook coming out! This is a delightful surprise. I’m dealing with Covid (& the ten days of complete isolation that are harder on me than the disease, itself) and unutterable heartbreak and grief and the holidays all at the same time & I could really use something pleasurable to help me get through this very very very hard time I am having. Your books have always been a great comfort to me and this news is like a rainbow coming through storm clouds.

Not that you can't circle back to one of the others for a palate cleanser if needed.

Supposedly, if there is an update available, there should be a button to click on one's "manage content and devices" screen. I'm not seeing one for this title on mine, though.
I wonder if anyone who bought the title later on got the updated version or not?
Puzzled, L.
Since I buy anything you put out the instant I know about it I couldn't say what might be in a later bought version.

The newer purchases should be the updated one, according to my e-wrangler. According to Kindle's Help section, "We only send customers updates to serious quality issues. Sending customers updated content may erase notes or highlights they entered, so the improvements must outweigh the disadvantages. We won't accept your request if you:
Added, deleted, or changed words, sentences, pages, chapters, or images that are not related to quality issues.
Changed a character's name or your eBook's plot.
Added, deleted, or changed links or marketing information
Made significant changes that warrant a new edition."
I have no idea how any of this applies to Nook or Apple Books editions. Anybody have those who can report?
Ta, L.
Well, what a pain. Thanks to Lois for providing the information. Typo corrections are serious quality issues, in my view, this is why they are typo corrections.And I have never made notes or highlights to an eBook in my life. Didn't make many in books, even text books during university.
Anyone have any idea how users can express their feelings to Amazon on this issue?

I don't suppose it's worth noting that a typo fix does not usually affect whatever underlines people might do (admittedly I don't so I'm not that good a judge)
I note the typos I find with a bookmark and those have never been affected by the corrections so their response seems bogus to me.
I deleted the downloaded copy, went in to "Content and Devices" in the Amazon app and it said there was an update. Downloaded again and it does seem to be updated. I can't say if the update would have been available without deleting it first though.

Later, checked my own edition; the update button was there in the "content & devices" list, and it worked.
A duplicate line in Barrayar, relic of a late editing pass, also got fixed. Glad I spotted that one! That volume did not show an update button, but I kludged around deleting it from my device and reloading, and the correction eventually came through.
I have no idea what Nook and Apple Books readers are getting, though. ???
