I think it's a fine title.

I have a few problems with people recommending it for people who want to learn to script in ROBLOX:

A.) People get confused on the difference between "ROBLOX Lua" and vanilla Lua. If they understood the minor differences, I think this would help. They could also choose to skip over learning a few vanilla Lua libraries should they choose to.

B.) Part IV is all about the C API, which is completely irrelevant and will scare someone away. If you don't know C, it'll confuse you.

When recommending it, I would encourage people to go a bit into detail (perhaps I or someone could make a thread about this) about the title you're recommending.
