On page 72 of the book "Of Beasts and Men" the last line states "never stopped that growth for their entire lives - "

Should there be anything else after this text, as it seems a bit odd to stop like that with a hyphen. I was hoping for more info, but perhaps it was left out by the printers by accident.

Any ideas?

Hey, you're right. How the heck did that happen.

Oddly enough, it was right in the first printing, but it got cut off in the second (I don't have a copy of the third, so can't comment on that one).

It should go on to say:

... never stopping that growth for their entire lives - ancient wyrms have been known to reacdh 100 feet long or even more.

Popular myth and childrens fables teach that wyrms like to horde wealth, which occasionally leads foolish and headstrong individuals to attempt to hunt them down, believing that if they can slay the beast untold wealth can be theirs. Sadly, this is far from the truth - most wyrms have little love for treasure, and the only wealth likely to be found in a Wyrm's lair are the remains of previous treasure seekers.


Sorry about that.
Brian.

p.s: Jake, this should go in the errata on the web page.
