yeah have the same problem

They used to crash the game! 🤣 no idea how to take them off the loot tables for rimcities but i imagine that'll work

Still happening

I believe these books are actually generated books, but probably failed to actually generate with any information or ties to... anything.
I got a similar problem pretty often with other areas, but never Rim Cities in my experience - all you can really do is just, avoid the books or identify and destroy them.
