fix #40171 - tribute typo for The Colour of Magic

Passage 1 of the Colour of Magic:  'bazaars' was misspelled 'bazarrs'.
There were a couple of other things that didn't match the paperback copy
I recently recovered from loan:  'radiation' should be 'radiations', and
'dark' was omitted from 'a tall dark figure'.

Unlike the later Harper editions, the early Signet ones retain British
spelling (at least for 'colour').  I failed to find the second passsage
via flipping through the pages, so wasn't able to proof-check that one.
