Edition Problem

[BeeBoom]

Hi guys

Im from Brazil and im reading the portuguese version of the Clash of Kings. Unfortunatelly this edition has an error in one chapter and there is no errata for it. It cannot be a big deal, but this problem is making me crazy.

I wanted to download the book just to read the chapter in the english version (and probably without the error), but i think better and decide to ask for you to help.

So, the problem is on a chapter of Arya, right before a chapter of Daenerys, in the Portuguese version it is in the page 274 so it should be around this page. In the paragraph where Weese is talking to Arya about smell the fear of the others the paragraph simply stops. If you guys could rewrite the paragraph here I would be very thankfull (or just resume what he says if it is too much large).

Thanks for the help and I hope you guys are having so much fun as I am reading these books.

Is this the paragraph you are talking about:

Weese was understeward for the Wailing Tower, a squat man with a fleshy carbuncle of a nose and a nest of angry red boils near one corner of his plump lips. Arya was one of six sent to him. He looked them all over with a gimlet eye. “The Lannisters are generous to those as serve them well, an honor none of your sort deserve, but in war a man makes do with what’s to hand. Work hard and mind your place and might be one day you’ll rise as high as me. If you think to presume on his lordship’s kindness, though, you’ll find me waiting after m’lord has gone, y’see.” He strutted up and down before them, telling them how they must never look the highborn in the eye, nor speak until spoken to, nor get in his lordship’s way. “My nose never lies,” he boasted. “I can smell defiance, I can smell pride, I can smell disobedience. I catch a whiff of any such stinks, you’ll answer for it. When I sniff you, all I want to smell is fear.”

Exactly. In my book this one finishes in "If you think to presume on his lordship’s kindness..."

Thank you man.

Welcome to the forum BeeBoom

having said that, STAY AWAY until you have finished all the books. SPoilers abound, and are hard to avoid.

I had an issue with my edition of A Game of Thrones... someone died unexpectedly.

I've owned four copies now and all seem to have the same problem.

I have the exact same problem with A Storm of Swords.

Boaz, if the death was unexpected in the second, third and fourth copies you read, I think the problem might be with you.

Nah, methinks if Boaz is persistent enough, maybe he finds copy with alternative version. And PLEASE let us know when you do that.
