Apologies to everyone who bought Discovery (Saiph #1) and discovered ‘strike outs’ throughout the book. Apparently this version went out to everyone, no matter when it was downloaded.
Amazon assure me they have emailed everyone affected and you have the option to update your version. If you have automatic updates switched on, you don’t need to do anything.
Full details on how to update are found on Amazon, for handiness I’ve copied the instructions below.
Turn Automatic Book Updates On or Off
Before you enable the Automatic Book Update feature, make sure Annotations Backup is turned on for your Fire tablet, Kindle device, or Kindle reading app to sync your notes, highlights, bookmarks, and furthest page read. For more information, go to Back Up Your Bookmarks, Notes & Highlights.

To enable Automatic Book Updates:
- Go to Manage Your Content and Devices.

For anyone who wants to know – how I made such a @*!”£$£$£ up, well..
I received a quality notice from Amazon over about half a dozen spelling mistakes in the book and I decided to update the book content. Unfortunately I didn’t realise that ‘tracking’ was switched on in the document I was uploading – I use Microsoft word.
It looked fine to the naked eye, but it turns out that lurking in the background were changes that hadn’t been ‘accepted’ in Review > Tracking and there you go, everyone got to read the latest edits.
I’m very sorry for any inconvenience and hope it hasn’t spoiled your enjoyment too much.
If anyone is still experiencing problems then please contact me
Sorry folks!
