While reading a spy novel that was more than a few years old I encountered a paragraph describing a room that contained some sort of hidden weapons cache. The room was 10 feet by 10 feet with a 10 foot ceiling. Later in the same paragraph the author referred to the room as having 100 cubic feet of space (not 1000 cubic feet or 10*10*10).
I notified the author via his website and got a very kind response, thanking me and admitting that he was not aware of the error and that I was the first one to bring it to his attention. This was at least 5 five years after publication of the book. I seriously doubt that there are very few "erratum" free books published. We just whomans after awl.
