Good read when you are new to the game, but the built-in tutorial and easy quests can be enough to familiarize yourself with the game.You might pick up a couple of hints from this book, but I would say you can learn more about the game from actually playing and from other players online (mostly guildmembers, as general chat is filled with non-sense, jokes, people wanting attention, etc).You can leave this book in the bathroom and it helps pass the time when you are on the toilet.
This is a very good book if you are playing this game and need a little help.
It does give information on the races, classes, and professions, but it is nothing that you couldn't get for free on the many websites out there for WoW. This is a great book for telling you who is in what village and that besties there are in what area. But that is where it ends.
Just realize that I don't care for the expansion guide, but since anyone buying this guide is likely new to WoW, by the time they get to the expansion, they won't need the expansion guide anyway. There's also some information on each class and race (again, not expansion).Again, there are websites that has every bit of info that this book has, and in a more updated state, but this book still is a good adjunct to that.Of course, if you haven't bought anything yet, I strongly recommend buying the battlechestWorld of Warcraft Battlechest, since you get this book, as well as 2 games, and the expansion guide with it. If you're very new to World of Warcraft, and have no access (or awareness) of the multiple websites that provide a lot of info and other guides to playing the game, this book would be useful for you. There are maps of most of the original WoW (not expansion) areas, as well as names, level info, and quest info.
Have fun. For first time players you should invest in this book. It was a world of help to me.
