I shouldn't comment at all I suppose but I personally think CSpy is a reasonable CS text if you were using it with a (human) tutor to provide context. That is, it teaches the CS concepts well enough but doesn't provide much context. But living in a glass house as I do, I don't like to throw stones at other tutorials so I'll leave it at that!
