A good guide for Fusebox 3
I bought this Fusebox book a while ago and really found it useful for explaining the Fusebox framework and putting it to use. The examples are straightforward and the narrative is to the point.

I'm in the process of moving to Fusebox 4 and after having struggled through "Discovering Fusebox 4", I wish this book (covering FB3) would be updated.

Fantastic Reference, especially for FLiP
I'm about 1/2 through this book, just starting the chapter on Prototypes and I just can't say enough about this book. Great reference for what happens inside the Fusebox core. Fantastic reference on the FLiP process, all compiled into one location to read through.

It's already changed the way I'm developing!

Solid writing, difficult concept
I have been thinking about jumping the Fusebox wagon for years now and must say I am thankful for this book. The authors make a good case for Fusebox 3, and show the way forward.

My biggest gripe with this book, however, is that when I first sat down (after the first full read-through...) to start building a FB app I had problems getting started. I tried to locate the starting points in the book - but this is really no roadmap to Fusebox. You'll still have to do a lot of figuring out yourself. But then again, Fusebox is covered in great detail on the web and the authors are part of the core of that community - and the book _does_ cover lots of good tools you can get for free which _will_ help you along.

Fusebox is a Very Good Thing for ColdFusion, and I would have given this book 5 stars if it had provided perhaps at least one brief summary, a step-by-step, perhaps, on how to start your first Fusebox app.

It's a great book, though. If you're ready to dive into Fusebox 3, this will save you time compared to learning everything from the web.
