| Page 7: | "It was a world where a new colonist might be able to lose himself in villatic contentment." |
| Meaning rustic or rural. Derives from the Latin Villaticus: a farmstead. |
| Page 40: | "Moth. It's capital city of Drallar." |
| Unwanted apostrophe: S/B "Its capital city". As written, it says that Moth is the city while Drallar is the planet. The opposite is true. |
| Page 69: | "On board the shuttle he addressed the vorec which was permanently linked to the Teacher's neutral nexus." |
| Spelling: S/B "neural nexus". |
| Page 205: | "Also, there was Pip's fate to consider. It was the first time he'd ever seen the minidrag reduced to helplessness." |
| This is incorrect. Pip was anesthetized in For Love of Mother-Not. |
| Page 233: | "The feelings of relief this engendered in the AAan soldiers was strong." |
| Number error: S/B "were strong". |
| Page 253: | "'You understand now why it is always best to wait and see what happens before trying to bad fix things yourself,' Saalahan reminded them sternly." |
| Word order: S/B "fix bad". |
