Nothing says we can't reverse it if we find out he's actually a decent per- HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Ah.
But no this is actually us being merciful. If I had my way after we read the book we'd turn him back and then flay his soul for anything of value.
Hell we made the Mammon machine using what is essentially a sack of meat, I'm curious on what we could use a soul for.

I'm guessing it's
Us: *Selling his soul into slavery to Devils!? Truly the evil and depravity of the planes have no limit*
Her: *Turning a soul into a book!? Truly despite his civilized veneer, the King still posseses all the cruelty and darkness that hides in the heart of all dragons*
That or the library as Talon said, or maybe she didn't know about the spell and her mind is going through all the possibilities.

No, it's that Viserys dismisses her suggestion as "so petty a fate as to weigh like air beneath his wings", and then he immediately goes on to say "I'm going to craft from his shrieking mind a book to know every secret and scrap of knowledge he possesses" when keeping her own counsel and guarding her mind were necessary to survival all her life.
We basically come across as a ruthless stone-cold motherfucker who could have easily been her worst nightmare if the wheel of fate had spun differently.

Really, transmuting 9th Circle casters into books is too obviously good to pass up. We get the skinny on:
1) All of their independent research, anything they collaborated on, and any research they had access to and wasn't subsequently erased or gated behind mental triggers past the point where he would make use of them.
2) Intelligence on various enemies, ranging from bios, descriptions, True Names in the case of fiends, the layout of facilities they have been to, typical protocol for gaining entrance to places.
3) Hidden assets, or possessions locations.
4) Bragging rights.

The Shaitan and the Djinn are going to be ecstatic when we share the intel with them.

Yes, this was a great boon. We are going to be heavily rewarded for sharing that intel.
I believe their Vizier also is still paying us bounty for headhunting their ships? Not completely certain... in which case, did we collect bounties for nabbing that Adamantine fleet as well? Not sure. Still, that's five or six more downed vessels, slain champions and assets, and of course key intelligence.

Yeah, he was kind enough to pay us bounties. With six Efreeti Skyships we should be looking at a very very good haul of loot beyond whatever bounties we get.
And of course if the nearby Titanic Valyrian Steel Spike can be extracted, that'll be its own beast entirely.

I'm greatly looking forward to seeing what the markets in the City of Brass had to offer.
It will be hilariously ironic to buy things there using money we looted from the Efreeti.

How dare he!
We are not a skulking pirate. We do not sneak about! We have a flair for the T H E A T R I C S. The guise of Scalathrax Ashbringer is essential to the performance art we are displaying to our allies!

At this point I have to wonder if we have not secretly acquired some obscure feat that allows to really take the mantle of whatever we are impersonating.
Like, as far as the universe is concerned, when we say we are Dywen, a humble begging brother, we really are Dywen.

The true hilarity comes when, as usual, the truth blurs into ridiculous rumour.
A few dozen years from now some plucky group of young do-gooders seek to raid the Dragon's (public) Library after hearing rumours of souls bound to parchment, only to find mundane text after mundane text.
Of course they need to be sure they aren't bound souls so they pay close attention in their studies.
By the end of their "adventure" they're halfway through their thesis and still haven't realised they were registered as Scholarum students 2 weeks in.

"Blast it! Hand me Wyverns In the Wilds again, Edgar! I can hear the moans of the tormented soul trapped between those pages!"
"That's just Laenor. He got remedial lessons again."
"Oh."

I wonder how many people sent to infiltrate us ended up converting to Yss, decides to stay in a city that does not smell like shit and has free healing, or otherwise ended up going native.
I guess the Inquisition would love to have a few double agents, have we rolled for that?
Edit: that.. that was not a joke
