trueblood vs trublood

i have about 100 pages left of dead and gone. i have read all nine books now with no interruption between each one. they have all been good with character development and do vary greatly from the tv show in terms of character involvement.

i have one thing to say about the latest book: i began reading book with a feeling of pure excitement. after reading the word: "trueblood," i immediately thought to myself that is not how it was spelled in past books. i went back to the eighth book and the synthetic blood drinked was spelled "trublood."

one word: marketing gimmick. you have upset a loyal fan and marketing student. that's just not cool. the only intention for the spelling change was so that readers buy into the tv show as well.
