My friend Jo Rhett's new book is called "Instant Puppet 3 Starter". In 50 pages he gets you up and running with Puppet3. I haven't read it yet, but if it isn't good let me know and I'll kick his ass.

P.S. Just kidding. Jo could kick my ass any day. I'd find some other punishment. Luckily I won't need to because I'm sure it is a great book.
