Mortal character stupidity has been known to make me punt on a book, yeah.

Anachronistic language doesn't bother me quite as much but it depends a lot upon the language in general. If it's anachronistic language yet still lovely to read, I'm okay with that. But if it's anachronistic language because the author doesn't really have a sense of what the cadences of the period dialogue should actually be like--bah. I think this was actually a contributing factor to the last book I bailed on, come to think of it.
