The truth is out there! ;-)
And I'm sure that either someone already knows, or if not we can work it out.
I have the UK paperback (1998) which says 'descendent'.
Could it be that UK editions were changed and the US ones fell through the 
net? Or is that far too simplistic?
Does anyone have a US edition which says 'descendent'? 
What about foreign language editions? 
If we all pool our information, we might crack this one.
