Good, informative read from someone who's got experience
As typical of many technical books, I don't like the title of this book. I didn't feel I was reading a book on how to architect a site built on ASP.NET. However, I did find this book to be a very useful tutorial on ASP.NET. It was an easy read and contained lots of useful tips and gotchas that are the result of the author's experience in working with .NET. The author's writing style is easy to tread through and contains lots of useful nuggets of info.

The other book I have on ASP.NET is Professional ASP.NET from Wrox, and I found this book complemented that book nicely. Where the Wrox book is a bit wordy and allows me to get lost in the details, this book is to the point and lets me see the forest for the trees...so to speak. While it didn't go too deeply into all the technical details of ASP.NET (hey, that's what MSDN is for) it did provide enought information for me to feel much more comfortable in ASP.NET after reading it. I recommend it to anyone looking to get a grasp on what ASP.NET is all about.

Disappointing
I have to admit that I expected more from MS Press. This book doesn't appear to be simple enough for beginners or advanced enough to help existing developers architect solutions. Most of the information is presented in an elliptical format. Events, methods and properties of core classes are rushed in randomly with little introduction before fading away in obscurity. No detail is given to any important topics: the complete Page lifecycle, how the code-behind and aspx page eventually are compiled together, how state management is being performed on the server, internationalization best practices - essentially how to design an ASP.NET application. The most significant flaw is the use of alternating C# and VB examples, distracting the reader from the topic at hand by switching between the two languages randomly and without notice. Based on the numerous "VB programmers will notice..." references, I have to assume this text may be aimed at just that audience - VB developers with no previous web development experience. Better information on the topic can be obtained from the QuickStart tutorials or MSDN.

Terrible
I've read the first 4 chapters twice and started reading part of chapter 5 before I gave up. The writing style is terrible. Do not get this book if you are a total beginner to ASP. Actually, do not even get this book at all. I have taken classes in C++, VB, and Java and it was still difficult for me to follow this book. The author goes into some really unnecessary details and there are many lines of code that he should not even be mentioning in this type of book. Lastly, this book was written with a pre-release version of Visual Studio .NET, so you'll just confuse yourself more. I wanted to learn how to build a web-based database application and figured that using ASP.NET would be the way to go. I think I'll try a book on PHP and MySQL next.
