Typo?

[petereeve]

Just noticed what appears to be a consistent typo in LoC chapter 42  (The Black Tower).  There are a number of references to saidar which should be saidin, such as (p.777):

 

"Two men in black coats, younger than Rand, came running and bent over Tolvar, then hesitated, glancing at Taim.  After a moment, Rand felt saidar fill them; flows of Air lifted a limp Tolvar, and the pair trotted away with him floating between them"

 

Maybe this was fixed in a later edition?

It could have been. There are a lot of typos that were fixed, and some that weren't.

 

I have the paperback Starscape versions for the first 1 & 1/2 books, and there is a typo with Nyn and Elayne or Egw...or someone.

Yeah, I seem to remember those too. Pretty sure that added to my confusion about which genders were saidar/ saidin in my first read-through.

[ed2funy]

Yea, it did.

 

Although it didn't help that I read the glossary first and thought all Wisdoms were AS.

I was confused for a long time

There are many mistakes like that, I noticed it many times when I read and reread the series.
