Used Book in Good Condition
Silly you, there are no Eve books.
There's some lore stuff here on the Eve website.
There's a lot more in EVE: Source
I also recommend EVE: The Empyrean Age which chronicles the events that lead to the Empyrean Wars (and Faction Warfare) and how they all linked together.
Side note, in EVE Source, there's a short story of an interview between I think it was a news reporter or something and a capsuleer that really caught my attention and my favourite part of it was this:
"What about the people under your command?" I ask him. "Do you find a need to reconcile yourself with their deaths?"
He looks down at the table and for a moment he's silent, then he says, "None of those people were unaware of what they signed up for. They know there are risks, same as with any other profession. Sure, the primary goal of my alliance is making money and expanding our influence, but that doesn't mean we don't care about the people in our employ. Our agencies send out personal letters of condolence to the families of every single person who dies on one of our ships. We provide insurance payouts to next of kin for all ship personnel."
"So essentially," I say, "you learn to not care about the people that have to die because you're furthering the aims of your corporate overlords."
"What I'm saying, Mr. Peltast," he replies, not skipping a beat, "is that these independent adventure seekers, having been informed of the risks, willing take their lives into their own hands when they sign up for crew duty. They are amply compensated, make no mistake. More importantly, they know they're playing their part in something that is bigger than they are. As am I. As are you."
Makes you think huh, those folks who signed up to be crews on my Procurer probably didn't intend to sign up for crew duty on a Battle Proc. But they had fun, right? :D
There are the novels
Then the limited editions of:
And
I'm really confused why CCP made this particular stance...
EVE's lore has detailed accounts of the following...
...The list goes on! And this is from one book (chapter) of a EVE Novel!
https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/0765363909/
So, why is CCP getting their panties all in a twist over an Alliance name?

theses are the only 2 worth reading, there's also burning life, but yeah, don't read that one. Not worth your time.
Read a book
Edit: I just finished The Empyrean Age and it was pretty good. It gives a great background to why things are the way they are between the four separate races. I am currently reading Templar One (which is the second book of the series) and it is definitely superior and I am enjoying it a lot more. I am a huge fan of sci-fi and it's my main genre of book that I read so I am a bit biased but if you're into scifi as well I recommend the books.
you forgot the 1st book

http://www.amazon.com/EVE-The-Empyrean-Tony-Gonzales/dp/0765363909 book 1
http://www.amazon.com/EVE-Templar-One-Tony-Gonzales/dp/0765326191/ref=pd_bxgy_b_text_y book 2
I thought that EVE The Empyrean Age had a nice ending with some surprises afte ran epic tail.
They're mainly their own legitimate books, so you'd need to buy them off Amazon or something.
I haven't read them but i've gotten parts here and there and would honestly consider getting it if I wasn't a broke student.

I highly recommend reading the Lore Survival Guide linked from the site. It covers a great deal of lore information.
The EVE Fiction link on the site is the new portal CCP has put up and contains the old lore articles, Chronicles and short stories. The bulk of the theories are derived from information across the various Chronicles and the novels "The Empyrean Age" and "Templar One" which can be found on Amazon. I also spent several week re-reading the news articles found on the EVE World News pages.

These are based on the same universe as the MMO EVE Online. I'll admit being a player of the game probably enhances the enjoyment of these books. EVE is pure science, no magic or co-habitation with aliens. Try the game if you like. It might hit that SCi Fi spot you want to scratch. The normal trial is 14 days, this link will get you 21 days and get me a game bonus if you sub.

I'm a big fan of EVE and also a big SCi Fi - Fantasy book reader. These books were enjoyable and worth reading I felt. And they are among a smaller pool of pure SCi Fi books so thought I would point them out.
