I found this book: C++ 17 Game Development Projects: Create 3 fully functional games with C++ using SFML, OpenGL, and Vulkan by Artur Moreira.

There is literally no copy of this book online. No stores sell it and no one mentions it here. Was this book made redundant on purpose?

He is one of the authors off SFML Game Development by Example.

it seems to be removed from Packt for some reason. maybe you can still find some printed copies around...

Sadly none. I checked on [redacted] and other free book sites and nothing came up.

I tried to add the author on Linkedin to ask him for a copy off the book, but Linkedin is not letting me "connect" with him for some reason.

Let's not advertise piracy sites. Those "free book sites" you mention are not free, you're illegally downloading books.

A publisher has the right to remove a book from the market.
