Great Book as usual!!!
I was a great fan of all the Head First series books, and more so with Andrew's books (HF PMP, Agile and now C#). As usual the whole concept of C# programming is explained with metaphors throughout the book, which you will not forget in the long run (I know this is very useful... That's how I have cleared my PMP in the first attempt itself 3 years back, and I still remember most of the concepts taught in the book clearly).Coming to the new book in C#, Andrew and Jennifer starts with the very basic of installing Visual Studio (there is even a video about it in their YouTube channel) and then takes us gradually to more advanced stuff, all along with different metaphors from the real programming world around us (and that's why I love all the Head First books). Highly recommended if you are looking for an all-round development knowledge in C#. I know, some of the readers and learners hate the Head First style of books (my best friend, for example hates it), but if you have read other head first books and loved the concept, you will love this one too for sure.

Interesting and captivating method of writing. Bad editing. .pdf >> e-book.
I read the preview of the book at O'reily media and intended to buy it. The contents of the book are good and written suitably not to bore you at all. The book uses a interactive design with drawings and conversation and bubbles in between. If you are still sceptical, you can always head to O'reily media and read a preview for the book.Cons : The E-book version has snipped out part of the pictures, due to which the illustrations are of no use. Also, the E book version feels very uncomfortable to use as they don't have a two page view option. and no pdf copies are available on amazon.

Excellent book! Lots of support material online!
Thank you authors for an excellent book! 6 months into it I finally finished it! A difficult subject but well explained. The only wish is to make exercises like Extension Magnets less confusing by using meaningful names. I understand the intent, but I believe it makes them too-oo hard, and unnecessarily time consuming. Often I just couldn't afford it and looked at the solution. Not the process neither of us wanted.

Wonderful and Entertaining!
This book makes learning C# fun! I've already programmed my own matching game from scratch and I'm not even past page 60 yet! This is a must-have if you are serious about learning C#!

The best C# book and my personal favourite! I'm about 70% of the way through and loving it so far!
I am a Software Engineer and I build things in both C# and Ruby. I am a few years into my tech career and have worked as a tech coach too.As a visual and explorative learner, this book is perfect for me. The book breaks down Software Engineering concepts clearly; whilst layering learning opportunities and increasing in difficulty through the book. I personally found the project-based learning approach really helpful to consolidate and build my understanding of concepts such as modelling, Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), unit testing & Test-Driven Development and much more.You will get the most out of this book if you just started out with C# and wanted to link that up with concepts. Nonetheless, even if you have worked with C#, this book is a perfect resource for consolidation. This book doesn't hand hold you through everything which is a prime way to explore and challenge yourself. There are solutions if you'd like to get some guidance. You can see this book as your virtual tech coach! :)And...it's fun! The projects focus on making games, so if you enjoy playing games, this book is for you. There are taster labs for unity too, but I would say if you wanted to focus on Unity, you may end up getting more out of a Unity-focused book.As with every book, my best advice is if you're just starting out in Software Engineering, or maybe you're a few years into your tech career already, don't be afraid to experiment and use these sorts of books as starting points. Don't be afraid to take a project and example and add your flair to it! Personally for me, that has helped me gain the most out of this book; for example, the book uses XUnit testing framework, but I prefer NUnit as a framework, so I used the XUnit as a guide and translated over to NUnit which helped me write better unit tests.Thank you so so much to Andrew, Jenny and the collaborators in writing this book and bringing it into the world for us to enjoy :)
