Goofs and errors in the Cinder Spire Books
« on: September 07, 2016, 09:51:20 PM »
Hellu Everyone,

I am not a native English speaker, and I wonder if anyone of you perhaps could help me with clarifying whether there is a small error in the Cinder Spire book, or whether it is simply my lack of knowledge in the English language which cause confusion.

In book 1, page 29, Grimm "curled his chest up to his knees and sat quietly for a moment". I kinda feel like it was supposed to be the other way around.

Cheers

Yeah, that should probably be "curled his knees up to his chest" instead.  The other order doesn't make much sense.
