  Again, You think you need it, but you don't. November 10, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
A seemingly good idea in concept, an unbelievably bad idea in reality. These guides suffer from a few issues, that ultimately make them a bad purchase.
(1.) Obviously a printed guide for an online game, won't be up-to-date, but these guides are hopelessly out of date. This fact alone makes these guides a complete and total waste of money. If you really want a guide, buy the .PDF version from Brady's website or ask Amazon to carry the .PDF version. The .PDF version is updated periodically throughout the year.
(2.) Due to the nature of all the games being released at any given time, there are lots of guides to write. Understandably they must be pressed for time. But these guides seem to have be so rushed that there are typos, incorrect information and missing information. Mistakes like these can make the guide unusable at times.
(3.) Any guide will likely be used by newer players. They will need to find information quickly and easily. Whoever setup these guides doe not understand information design or the essential needs of a new player. Even if you skip reason 1 and 2, when you actually use the guide, you will likely be frustrated many times.

Save your money for other fun stuff, like WoW 60 Day Game Cards which amazon usually offers for a good price.

Amazaing book to start out with, includes everything you need to now about the game and even things that you dont. The book is so finley detailed with everything from your first dagger to level 60(70 if burning crusade) and soon to be 80
  Good Start August 12, 2007 The book helps you in the early stages of the game. Does not have anything on the two new expansion set that the only problem.
  A great guide with tiny print! July 7, 2007 A very useful refence - but we older gamers might need a magnifying glass to read!
  WOW Guide June 27, 2007 After using the burning crusade guide, this guide is getting me a lot of info on the other areas
