I'm just starting out learning D.
Andrei Alexandrescu's "The D Programming Language" is 10
years old, so is it still worth getting? (I don't know how
much D has changed in 10 years.)
Depending on your background:
https://wiki.dlang.org/First_Language
https://wiki.dlang.org/Coming_From
Even if you are not new to programming this book would be a
good start:

Thanks for the links.
I should have said that I find it a *lot* easier learning from
a print book than online which is why I asked about the
Alexandrescu book.
Has D changed enough in 10 years to outdate that book? I know
most other languages have but I'm completely new to D.
Ali's book
http://ddili.org/ders/d.en/index.html
is D's "official tutorial". You can buy a print copy. If you have
experience with other languages, Mike Parker's Learning D is also
an excellent choice. There's nothing wrong with Andrei's book for
a beginner, but I would personally recommend those two over
Andrei's for someone new to D.
