LINQ in Action Second Printing!

Our LINQ book

LINQ in Action is doing well. We're all happy with the sales and all the reviews, on Amazon (5 stars on average) or on blogs.
In fact, the book is doing so well that the publisher has to do a second printing! We didn't expect that it would happen so soon :-)

We've updated the text where needed, according to the errata we've collected since the first edition was published, back in February. The new files are being sent to the printer right now.
If you see something else that could be improved (for the third edition...), feel free to post a comment to the new errata page or in the forum.

LINQ in Action can be found on Manning's website (with all the details and sample chapters), on Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.ca, Amazon.fr, Amazon.jp, Amazon.de, BarnesAndNoble.com, and many more online and offline bookstores!

Congratulations! :)

The only error I've seen so far is that entityspaces is mentioned in the book as one of the o/rmappers with a linq provider. This isn't true, entityspaces doesn't have a linq provider.

Thanks Frans. This was the first thing that I identified by myself and put on the errata. This has been fixed in the new printing :-)

The only thing I noticed, is that the links to the errata pages are broken! ;)

Thanks Ben!

They've been lost in the crossposting. I've fixed them.

The PDF has been updated.

All current ebook customers have been notified that a new version of the ebook is ready for them.

When will it be available?

Amazon, and Manning's own web site, make no mention of a second edition.

It's actually a second printing. I'm not used to the terms in the book world. Anyway, this has been printed in May, so I guess the copies are now available in bookstores.

FWIW, "Second, corrected printing May 2008" is written at the bottom of page IV, just below the ISBN.
