| My personal view is that it is the best book out there. However having said
that, I don't think one gets it all with only one book. And to pass the exam
I definitely needed exam simulations. No matter how hard you read a book,
you do not retain everything and being asked questions is the only way to
understand what you didn't understand. From this point of view the Kalani
book is excellent since it has summaries for each section, summaries for
each chapter, dozens of examples for each chapter, review questions for each
chapter, an exam simulation for each chapter, an overall book quick fact
summary and a final entire book exam simulation. It is also one of the most
reasonably priced. It is about 1100+ pages for $34 whereas the Microsoft
Press book is 700+ pages for more than $50. If you go to Amazon.com, you can
see the reviews for the various books plus get a look at the contents of a
number of the books.

| Only C#, but there is a companion book for 70-305 by a different author
(Mike Gunderloy). If the style is the same (and it probably is) then it
would likely be a good book. The reviews on amazon.com are no less glowing.
There are also similar books on 70-306, 70-310, 70-316 and 70-320. You'll
find all relevant books and their reviews using those search keywords.
