Default Re: The Assassin'S CreeD Book Thread

Found this at a GoodWill and maybe someone here has more information on what it is? I'm guessing it's a reviewer's copy or a copy still in the process of editing.

It's mentioned as a "Uncorrected proof version". Not entirely sure what that means but I'm guessing it's a copy of the book before the final edit and sent for printing?

Ok so i now this is a very late reply but this is my line of work

An uncorrected proof version is the version that has already been formatted (writers dont use always use paragraphs, etc) but the text itself has not yet been proof read.

Thus copies are normally sent out to the Publisher marketing and sales teams for them to see with what they are dealing with and prepare accordingly while the text is being proof read (it takes a long time and is boring as hell) and printed.
