Good detailed guide to Borneo
Having already been to Borneo, we bought this guide for our nephew who is going there this summer. We looked at a few specific reports on areas that we had enjoyed as we knew our own opinions(!)and found the reports to be accurate and updated from the time that we were there.

Standard travel guide
I usually prefer Lonely planet guides rather than its competitors, though they do vary depending on the writer.

I only went to the Sabah region of Borneo so most of the book was not relevant to me but the section on Sabah was good enough for my purposes.

To get to Borneo you do usually have to go via Kuala Lumpur or Singapore. There is a very brief section on these two cities but I ended up having to take a separeate book on KL with me. So a few more pages about these two places would be really useful in the book.
