While talking should be used more in the game, the fact remains that the communication with NPC's basically suck, because you need to figure out what keyword they need to continue conversation. I think this is one of those things for the 2.0 release. However, if a book is done, you should make sure it is level 0 so anyone can read it. Otherwise, classes that don't start with literacy are basically screwed. In reality, this info is largely relevant for new comers. Experienced players will likely know about the different gods and go in and choose whatever one they want without having to converse or read books. So whatever we do, it should be very easy for first time players to get the information, and unfortunately, conversing with NPC's is not very easy.
