Indespensible ASP Reference
This book has carried me now for two years. I don't need some end all be all bible - MSDN keeps updates on specific issues I have. This is a great ASP reference for the "working" programmer who just needs to see an example of "how it's done". Chalked full of sample code that WORKS!!!

Excellent
Let me be honest, I hate programming, I don't like anything to do with the web, and the internet, but hey, it's good money right? and besides it's nice when you can add 'programming experience' to your resume. So I bought this book, at first it doesn't look too anything, but when I began reading I realized that the reason I hated it so much had to do with the fact that I didn't understand anything there, this books got me started and now I am an advanced programmer. I would like to recommend any book from Wrox publishing, it's all good!

Not so good sequel
I read this book after reading Beginning ASP cover to cover. For those others of you that have, fair warning: There is alot of repetitiion in the first few hundred pages, albeit with sometimes better scope (sometimes though, the 1st one has stuff that's NOT in here!).

The book is not so smooth because it is plagued by typos and also casual switching from JavaScript to VBScript based on the chapter author's whim I suppose.

Speaking of that, the fact that there are 8 authors in this puppy means that the book does not flow well at times, with certain chapters repeating others and also some authros being much better that others.

Now on the positive side, there was a lot of material covered in this book, also with good examples and expert advice. I must say though, ASP Unleashed is the real gem if you want to be on your way to ASP Jedihood.
