Could he be more carbon neutral in releasing a book, than making it ebook-only, which he seems to have done here?
Look at his Twitter, he owns cars, boats, a multi-storey house on the Gold Coast without any solar panels
He really is full of himself, isn't he?

I remember having a conversation with him on Twitter once, and his comments were quite offensive. Very general, sweeping opinions about British people (I'm British/Australian.) Mostly made him self look like a boob, but he's not the kind of person to self-reflect and recognise that.
I like his blog's content - he's clearly smart - but you're right: he actually contributes so little, but has a huge degree of prestige.
Is one of the review blurbs "I only read the intro and the epilogue written by other people, but those were great"? I guess that is the only new content, but that's a strange choice to publish in promotion of your book.

Also it was said to a guy whose wife/fiance was the prom queen.

I would argue that he has undoubtedly had the greatest impact on educating end-users on the dangers of password reuse.
From what I have seen of his interactions he seems like an incredibly intelligent and humble guy.
As soon as I saw Troy's post about this in my news feed, I thought I'd buy it immediately, but $39 is a lot for this sort of thing. I've bought similar books from tech bloggers and they've been closer to $15.
His story sounds interesting, but not $39 interesting.

He gloats a lot on Twitter about this stuff which is why I unfollowed. It went from great content to soso content and lots of gloating.

That quote makes me feel bad for the Prom Queen. Congrats, you're a trophy with a tiara.
Oh it’s an ebook only? Okay.
Don’t get me wrong, proofreading, formatting and structuring is work and not the fun kind of work, but that’s a hard sell.
For 19$ … yeah, maybe.
