It says wikipedia articles. so is it any good? I mean is there any new articles or photos, or just a compilation of posts?

there is some kind of scam perpetred by vendors on book-on-demand sites : they take wikipedia articles, long posts from forum and stuff and put them into a book. They use the free work of other people to sell books to ignorant buyers.

I don't know about this one, but by the names, I would think they might not be v:tes players, hence have added nothing to what is already online.

Feel free to wrong me though.

@Reyda: I was thinking of the same thing. Just wanted to know if somebody already got the book and wanted to comment on it. Looked awfully suspicious.

The information on Wikipedia about VTES is far too sparse to comprise the material for a book of any length.

Caveat emptor.

Aye, some used to put out over ten thousand new books a day into Amazon until they got slapped for the behaviour. They are automatically produced from Wikipedia articles by simply following the links. Completely worthless.
