My cousin is a n00b who is learning NL and I was wondering if there's an actual good book I can get him off stars.
I thought Super System sucks FWIW and was hoping there's something better.
Something which discuesses airing your hand, double barreling, semi-bluffing, etc etc, or is just overall good.
Good NL book for n00bs.

Seriously? I still think Winning Low Limit Hold'Em is the BEST book for poker noobs to read...regardless of whether they plan on starting with NL or Limit...it's the ONLY book that caters to the adjustments players have to make to the lower limits (i.e. knowing that you'll have to showdown the best hand to win). All other books give you 'proper' general strategy that will just get noobs in BIG trouble if they try to apply it.
HoH is still the standard NL book, tho...not even close.
Theory of poker comes later, sorry Xas

The HU section in HOH2 is the best piece of HU literature printed in a book so far IMO.
