This review is from: Quake Game Secrets: Unauthorized Guide to the Shareware Levels (Secrets of the Games Series) (Paperback)

The book was OK for the beginner but don't get it if you have the full version. The book is woefully short on picture (they are non existent) but overall it is an OK book to get the novice Quake player started.
