I have never invested in any Kickstarter project (or similar), but I am glad that the option exists because it allows smaller publishers to raise the money before actually publishing their material. While you wont know that the material in question will be published, Kickstarter (unlike IndieGoGo, apparently?) gives you back the money invested if the project isnt realized. (although some money may be lost through transactions, PayPal policy etc)
Sure you are paying for a product you havent seen yet, but if this is a product that you really want to see written then you might be persuaded to put some money into it.
The added publicity is a bonus. Having people aware of an upcoming product is a good way to open up to an even greater market.
