Ignatius Press’ goof up with the new “Joseph Ratzinger-Collected Works: Theology of the Liturgy”

Massively screwed up page numbering.

For your Caveat Emptor file.

Some time back I advertised that Ignatius Press was about to release Joseph Ratzinger-Collected Works: Theology of the Liturgy and that it was available for pre-order.

Lots of you… lots… pre-ordered it.

I regret to say now that the edition I received, and I’ll bet a lot of you received, is massively screwed up.  The pagination is fouled up in the last part of the book, from about pp. 528 ff.

Apparently, it was an error by the printer.  Who else?

I wrote to Ignatius and got back this response:

The new printing will be ready in about a week – at that time everyone who bought a book from us will be receiving a corrected version.  If you bought it elsewhere, please contact them for a replacement.

Thank you,

Really helpful, I’d say.

I received mine as a gift, so I am out of luck.  No customer support.

So, folks, keep this in mind.
