Free Is Not Always Good,

This review is from: Coleridge's Ancient Mariner and Select Poems (Kindle Edition)
I feel silly complaining about something that is free, but I'm going to delete this version from my Kindle and find one with better formatting. This one has a Table of Contents, but it only tells what is included, it won't guide you to anything.
The text of The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is run together--at least it is not formatted in four-line stanzas as it should be (at the start, anyway), and the line numbers are inserted right into the text, so you read, "The sun came up upon the left, 25 Out of the sea came he!" etc. Worse than any of that are the VERY frequent annotations, which were inserted right into the text, believe it or not, ruining any chance of enjoying the poem's rhythm. One positive would be for the person that enjoys a monstrous introduction; I normally don't, but this one I like. The down-side to a monstrous introduction without an active Table of Contents is that you have to laboriously page your way through it to get to the poems.

This review is from: Coleridge's Ancient Mariner and Select Poems (Kindle Edition)
Good gravy, don't bother with this. It's free and worth less than what you pay. I don't know if the paper copies are readable, but the kindle edition is total garbage - the annotations are mixed willy-nilly into the text, making everything except the Introduction completely unreadable. The Table of Contents isn't hotlinked to the rest of the text, making finding any particular item a real pain in the neck.Just skip it. To all authors publishing on Kindle: If you can't do better than this, please just don't bother. This kind of junk conversion shouldn't be in the kindle store at all.
