The definition of Frustration
Working your way through a long series of novels, say about 2100 pages, of a story...getting to the last couple of hundred of pages...turning the page in the midsts of the build up of the series climax and finding out there was a publishing mistake as several "signatures" (about 20 pages each, in my case there were apparently 3 missing) are just missing...not there...not ripped out just absent turn page 517 over and across from 518 instead of seeing page 619 see page 583 with lots of important stuff apparently referred to on 583 that you have no idea how it came about.

Seriously, though... i feel ya on the frustration thing. A few years ago, i bought some books from a used bookstore. Got into reading one of these 'who-done-its", then discovered that the last 8 or so pages was missing. Gah!!
