Silverlight 2 in Action

Silverlight 2 in Action is a great book to get you started with Silverlight development.  At 371 pages, it’s a short book that has enough info to get you going and act as your jumping board into Silverlight.  I like the fact that each chapter is rather small but gets to the point immediately.  I also like the short code snippets and the fact that relevant code is never buried into pages of code filling.  Highly recommended for .NET devs looking for a Silverlight 2 jumpstart.
