I picked up this book hoping that it would give me a good foundation on WoW addon creation, and it did. What I didn’t expect was just how much I’d be going back to the book over and over as an API reference.

Although Blizzard keeps updating the WoW API, this books extensive reference section covers enough of the fundamentals, that I always start there.

I can’t say that this book would be the best starting point for anyone who has never programmed before, but then again, creating addons for WoW isn’t really an endeavour for anyone who hasn’t programmed before.

However, that’s what made this book so great for me. The Lua language and WoWs API are full of eccentricities and “gotchya”s. This book provided a really good “get up to speed quickly”, and functions as an ongoing reference.

The authors also maintain a website that updates as the WoW API updates.
