Interestingly, the cover shows this review for The Matrix: "There's Malice in Wonderland." On the site, the review is "Malice in Wonderland." Would all three or fewer worded reviews that make to the book be edited to four words so as to not confuse the readers?

Nope. That'll be artistic license by the design department I'd guess.
It's extremely unconventional for a design department to have any say over the text, even the text that's on the cover.
Agreed.
Think you can have them fix that before publication? Doesn't seem right to change a real review to something that isn't on the site.
Disagree. Most design departments do flex their muscles, unfortunately. The prime objective is to ensure that the book sees the light of the day so that we can see it on the best sellers list.
As far as I'm aware, that isn't even the cover. The cover may be like that, but it's just a design put together to plug the book to bookshops so I'm not bothered about the reviews or their format on this. Frankly, I'm more surprised nobody here picked up on the curious credit given both myself and Mike at the bottom of the page!

Yukon, benj is the writer of the review going to be listed with the review in the book as it is on the website?
If I am lucky enough to get one in the book I would like to be able to know it easily.
