Ah, fair enough. I was thinking more of books people might already be aware of to give them some previous knowledge of the subject.

That much is true.
One thing to be wary of is that sometimes setting up the "improvisational" scenario (create characters with relationships to these npc's...) can seem as much railroading as a "traditional" one (this bloke comes into the pub and offers you a job...) - especially for players not used to creating characters laden wit "kickers"
