Alright, I know it's really not fucking cool to bump an old thread like this, but I'm actually surprised that the recent events were not documented, so I figured I should do it. So here it goes:
Apparently, melora, the woman behind the mostwantedbooks website and maybe the book too, has passed away due to pneumonia. Ever since then, the website has gone down, the TVGry report and all of the videos on her channel were also removed.
Oh yeah, and the third volume of the book was released around the September of 2017, but considering the closure of the website, I doubt we can find out anything about it.
So I guess this kind of concludes the whole NFS Book story. Unless we find out anything about the final volume.

Hi guys, Does anyone here still have a way of contacting Karolina Marchewka? According to this site: nfspolska.pl/news/1202/sprawa-ksiazki-most-wanted she is the one who wrote the book in Polish and there is no English version. I think this is true as well. I am trying to see if there is an English version out there. I am currently translating each chapter via google translate. I can provide the translated copies to anyone here who is interested.

as far as we're aware, there's no english version and since the book isn't really something good to begin with, it's not worth translating. Andrus did translate it up to a certain point back in the day, I'm sure you'll find it closeby

Thanks a lot for your reply.
I get what you mean.
Well, I just completed the translation. It wasn't much effort anyway thanks to some free online sites.
I feel the google translation butches the writing a bit.
I was hoping to get my hands on the English version to get a feel of the original mood and tone, but I think there is no such version. I was curious to know who actually wrote it. I strongly believe Karolina Marchewka (Melora) is the original writer and the original and only version is in Polish.
But if anyone has proof otherwise or a way of contacting her, please feel free to let me know.

Thanks for that.
Well, I'm just gonna try my luck. I'm kinda resigned to the fact that there is no English version anyway.
Cheers.

remember this fanfic? that dudess just got featured on the biggest gaming youtube channel in poland rip nfst as i'm watching: 4th minute: indirectly talking about mw aka greg 6th minute indirectly talking about nfst (where she supposedly met ADAM who owned a copy and was supposed to translate the book into different languages) 10th minute: taling about accusations of being a fanfic, but - watch out - NEXT CHAPTERS convinced fans that its legit captions? I would like to know a little bit more. Final request guys. Anybody still have a copy of this video interview? The video link doesn't seem to work for me. Thanks in advance.

update: [3:10 PM] still straightly reflecting gay: tldr - guy got lansky's email here from Monika around week ago BUT andreas lanksey (andew mcpherson) has his cv online shahlab.ca/assets/pdfs/team/andrew-mcpherson-cv.pdfEMAIL: andrew.mcpherson@gmail.com WEBSITE: amcpherson.github.io/the email does not match up we can also see on his cv lead programmer for ps2? but the nfs book people said he wrote the story :V my favourite moment about this story - i actually remember writing about the situation of the e-mail on the book forum. A few days have passed, and then the forum has shut down despite domain being rented for another bit of time... Sadly this one was not screened in the forum copy, but i believe i did actually send a link to that either on NFST discord or Andrus DMs right after posting it on book forum. Sadly the public copy or the web archive of the forum has nothing saved of this :/

also i know i mine out this old thread, but i have decided that this story needs a proper sendoff into the ditch. Even with me using purely dry facts this book at that point has literally nothing protecting the 14year old's logic it was written with. I'd love to get someone from this old thread involved in a little in a small video i'm planning to make with my new-to-book's-story-friend. You probably know my discord username already - the line is open for book case contact

the story with this book is interesting, but also somewhere ironic, but one by one. The book is 100% a scam or at best a fanfic with a nice cover, someone who thinks after so many years that things are different, I have a few things from the book itself for him that I disagree with same as in both games: 1. We have two heroes of Polish origin (coincidence???) 2. Cross (the former cop/bounty hunter) is acting too friendly towards us for someone who has been trying to get at us for two games. 3.Razor and his Blacklist buddies are also friendly towards us. From them I would rather expect revenge for being sent to jail than regret for their sins. In general, the entire Fanfic is in the convention of this type of nonsense and have weak love story theme. As for the main character of this scandal, Melora. She is currently alive and well, judging by what she posts on Instagram (to find her, just type "karolina carrot melora" in Google - she's the one with glasses). And from what I understood, I looked through posts on various Polish and foreign forums that remained, as well as archival recordings featuring melora. She simply wanted to make a name for herself by creating a fan book written by a supposedly screenwriter who was not included in the credits (which was supposed to legitimize the whole project, but how exactly I have not figured it out to this day), as well as continuations of the events from the games, and she had plans for further parts (or at least the end of the last fanfic suggested it with a cliffhanger) but it didn't work out because people started digging into the topic of author Lansky and the bubble of lies burst. I guess she simply underestimated the impact of the Internet era, so she did the only sensible thing in her opinion, she pretended to be her family member through another account and sold information about her death and people bought it even though there is something like Grobnet and it is easy to check whether something like that happened and where woman rests. Well, it's a long time ago (over 6 years) and the purpose of my post was to combine all the thoughts and theories that have been created over several years.

Still a better love story than Twilight I approve 👍
