Hardy? I don't think so...
Reading a story where a coach gives someone a "hardy handshake". I do believe that should be "hearty".
Later, the author has him making a "world wind tour". *sigh*

Recently read a free online sample of a novel; this sample did not encourage me to buy the rest, or any other product by the same publisher.
Besides an insomnia-curing writing style, the story consistently had "lightening" where "lightning" was obviously intended.
I suspect far too many authors, agents and editors are proofreading through sheer force of spell checker.

It still doesn't make much sense, but at least it's silly, rather than badly written.

(don't worry, that also hurt to type)
