In the near future we're going to be doing a reprint of Hot War. One thing I'd really like to do is clear up any little errors, typos and mistakes that are in the text. And I'd like to enlist your help!
If you've spotted a typo, seen an error or think a bit of text could be a little clearer, then please let me know right here in this thread. Any and all help would be wonderful.
Thanks
Malcolm
[Hot War] Errors, omissions and errata

I did spot a few typos (not many) when reading Hot War, but I've not had a chance to look them up again since I spotted this post. I for example seem to remember scene when it should have been scenes... but that doesn't really narrow it down.
Also, I just watched The Dark Hour (La Hora fría - "the cold hour") which I must say is an excellent spanish sci-fi horror-mystery (it has flaws, but the atmosphere was spot-on for me). It seemed to push nearly all the buttons for what Hot War is about (or can be about) and so I thought you might want to add it to the mediography (I don't remember seeing it there). It has post apocalypse, twisted technology, war ravaged characters, tension, running out of food, ammo and energy, etc. Very bleak and wonderful.

Thanks for the heads up on the film, Claus. It's not one I had encountered before, so I'll certainly try to check it out.
Thanks
