Review: Repetitive storyline riddled with editing errors

This book is the single worst example of poor editing (what editing?) in my history of reading free Kindle books.  The book is rife with examples.  In fact, you will find them on virtually every single page.  I'll just mention a few.For example, misuse of words.  Using "feat" instead of "feet."  "Rouge" instead of "rogue", as in "He was a rouge Colonel."  (Which, actually, is quite funny.)  "Accommodations" rather than "commendations."  And there are a thousand or so more examples, which you will find should you choose to attack this story.Overuse of commas.  Broken sentences.  Lack of quotation marks.  Or, how about changing font sizes and colors (from black to gray and back again).  Poor adjective use:  for example, a boat is described as "large" at the beginning of a paragraph and as "mid-size" near the end of paragraph.  Use of "it's" instead of "its" and vice versa. I could go on, but take my word for it.Now for the story:  first of all, it's too long.  Second, here's the plotline (which is full of holes):  go after an item, fend off the bad guys, make it though ancient traps, escape, go after next item.  Over and over and over.  The story is just too long and repetitive.So why two stars rather than one?  As much as I wanted to just quit reading this disaster and delete the book from my Kindle, I toughed it out.  Why?  Because for some unknown reason, I actually liked the Omega characters and wanted to see how they made it though all the obstacles that were thrown at them.  I had no real interest in learning how the book ended...I just wanted to know how the characters fared.  But, given that, would I recommend this book?  Uh, I don't think so.  Let me put it another way...NO!  Unless you are willing to overlook glaring editing errors and put up with an overly long story full of plot holes, you do not want to read this book.
