By everything, do you mean your interpretation of the lore. If "those books" contradict what you think is true to the lore than that's a sign that your views are wrong. Not a "lore book" try again. They're canon... They're a book... yup, seems like a lore book to me. It's supposed to be a story for entertainment purposes. Not a history book for Tamriel. Yah, and was made for entertainment purposes too. You think just because it is a story that it isn't canon?

The events of are heavily influenced by the books. Did you notice that giant mountain in the distance with ash spewing out of it? Yah, that was in the books.

The books are canon. So everything ever told by the game is 100% true no questions asked? If that's so, than Winterhold was never a big city because M'aiq the Liar said it wasn't.

So because one thing it said was true, all things it says is true o.O? No. Bethesda probably gave him guidelines of what to do, while he made up the actual story and what not.
