Late last week  I reviewed Killer's Wake by Bernard Cornwell.  Sorry I had 
to rejected in spite of the fact that the book was outwardly of excellent 
quality.  Unfortunately when I wen I performed a page integrity check by 
sampling every 20 pages or so,  I realized the book was badly out of 
kilter.  By page 50 there was already an offset of 4 pages.  I tried to do 
some repair,   but crucial page numbers were missing in the problem spots 
and I was not able to determine exactly what/where the problem was.  These 
kinds of situations can only be fixed by the submitter.

While it is not necessary to perform complete quality checks and 
spellchecks before submitting a book,  it is important to perform a 
thorough page integrity check,  so that the book is submitted   in its 
entirety,  without page omissions or duplications.  This will make book 
approval a lot faster.
If the original submitter can fix book integrity,  I will be happy to fix 
the rest of the book in short order.  Thanks,  Guido

I want to apologize to everyone.  I had downloaded books that I was
continuously checking, but it has taken me more time.  I downloaded a lot 
of
books mistakenly as I was very afraid I would have to work on books I 
would
not feel comfortable validating as they were about subjects I know little
about.  Jesse said to not keep them so long unless I could do them quickly
so I have tried to place back on the validation list some of the books 
that
were older.  Again, I apologize, and I hope someone who has more time than 
I
actually have can help get these finished, and hopefully I can validate
quicker in the future.

Reggie
