"Good" Species specific books are very hard to come across. unless you are after dogs or cats.

The book reviews here on the forums cover many, many useful books for caudate keepers and enthusiasts that may help you find what you are looking for.

I was looking at the Newts and Salamanders A Complete Guide to Caudata by Devin Edmonds.
But would like to know What kind of infomation on fire salamanders it has, does it have photos and infomation about all subspeices.
 
It just lists them and the country they come from. It's not comprehensive if that's what you're looking for. If you want to know a lot about Fire salamanders and their subspecies, I'd say, search around the forum here and google them.
Start here:

I don't know any source that deals with them in a lot of detail, other than an overview or a list. The only book I know of that really does that is Raffaëlli's, which is quite expensive, in French, and covers all the salamanders of the world, with 9 1/2 pages being the total covering Salamandra salamandra. It's an awesome book, but not for everyone.

Probably the links above is just as helpful as Raffaëlli's book.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
