I have to agree on the Forta books, so I went out and got O'Reilly's 
'Programming ColdFusion MX' by Rob Brooks-Bilson. Doesn't assume you know 
nothing about CF (as Forta does), but that you were at least on v5 when 
you bought the book. Useful and not as expensive as some (and only 1100+ 
pages!).
