 perfect for a directx beginner September 22, 2008
Perfect for a directx beginner who already has some experience working with Microsoft Visual Studio C++. A couple of things could be presented a little bit more clearly... but overall.... good job Wendy!

Ok, so Beginning DirectX 10 Game Programming, keyword Beginning, assumes you already know C++, and windows programming...if you don't these things...stay away, the book is way too advanced. I ended up returning it.
 A good book July 23, 2008
It is a good book for anyone interested in learning the basics of graphic programming. It is also a good basic introduction to DX10. There are a lot of things not cover however as a basic book it good.
The examples do compile properly so that is a plus.
 Not so good February 9, 2008

Book gives some valuable info on DirectX techniques and apparatus, but practically no more than basic samples.
It gives exactly what the title says February 6, 2008

It truly is an introduction into D3D10. Tells you exactly how to get started. If your new to dX, this is actually a great book to start. She does a great job in telling you how things work and the way they do. Now i am not saying it will always be great and will always be easy to learn. If your not great at C++ then this book still is fine. It does not use advanced concepts. It just plainly does a great job in what it says.
