The only book I have for ASP .NET is the free one I got from CF United and it seems ok to learn with. The online sources mentioned in this thread looked like some good ones for a CF person to reference. A couple of the books mentioned looked like they might be well worth the effort of finding used or even new. I'd like to take that course mentioned but not really feasible considering cost and location and it would come out of my pocket even though I think I could write it all off.
