      I have purposefully destroyed one book in my life, in order to prevent anyone from reading it:

      Man of Two Worlds by Brian Herbert.

      ...and I did the world a favor.

      It reminds me of the book "Man of Two Worlds" by Frank Herbert and his son Brian. In it, some crazy inventor guy built his own car, but instead of wheels like any normal car, it had legged robots on each end that carried it. The inventor's son complained that this car was impractical as it couldn't travel as fast as a normal car.
