Honorable Brother Genitivi did a great work but unfortunately missed some mistakes in the encyclopedia.

CAUTION: This is valid for a Kindle Edition.


Page 19. "Anything prior to Divine 1:1 is known as the Ancient Era", which means there's no "Divine 1:00"-- however any other century includes year zero (for instance, "9:00 Dragon: King Maric succeeds in driving out Orlesian occupying forces").
Also, page 21. The "Ages" sidebar: a century begins in year 1, ends in year 99. So where's year 0?
That's not a WoT unique mistake, actually. There's the same mistake in any Prima Game Guide.

Page 85. Seheron is called the largest island in Thedas. Par Vollen seems to be larger though.

Page 115.  The"Andraste's Disciples" sidebar: Disciple Cathaire doesn't mentioned. He tested protagonist during the DAO's Test of Faith quest and described himself as disciple of Andraste and commander of Her armies.


Feedback is welcome.

Takes place in a time when spelling and grammar weren't as standardized.

The divine 1:1 would follow real world convention, their is no AD 0, so first century, first year of the Divine age being written as 1:1 makes sense (assuming no later age has a 0:1 or 0;0 entry.)
Disciple Cathaire not beign mentioned: you are assumning he wasn't a fade spirit pretending to be what he claimed in DA:O.
