I checked out and took a quick look at Dreams of Stardust to see if maybe I
could quickly add what is needed.

What I see so far is several thousand smart quotes that need replaced with
regular " marks. I also see em dashes that need replaced with --. I see page
breaks which each need to have a blank line before and after them. I see
page numbers which need a blank line before and after them. I see several
occurences of ",s instead of 's in the first few pages at least. I see pages
that end with hyphenated words like on page 6 ends with pater- and then page
7 starts with nal instead of moving the word all to one page.

Since this isn't a book I want to read, and I found all of this by paging
down just through the first ten pages, I don't want to proofread it, but if
someone does and wants to let me know what is missing, I can supply it
before Thursday noon-ish.
