FWIW: I don't think the "Unleashed" books come all that highly
recommended, although they probably vary in quality a lot, generally
only sharing the title (and size :-).
Also, amazon may be good for searching for books, but in terms of
price, there are far better place to buy books online. Some I have
used are bookpool, a1books, and fatbrain (amazon may have discounts up
to 20%, but these other places often have discounts up to 40%).
Even better, there are bookstore search engines (e.g. addall and
dealpilot) that will search through a whole bunch of online
bookstores, returning such information as price, availability, S&H,
and how long it will take to get the book. (Some of that info you
often don't even get from the bookstore directly until you're
already/almost done placing your order.) You can get the info sorted
by, for example, price. *Very* handy! I don't know how accurate the
info is, but the few times I've used them, it's worked well for me.
