Vulkan Essentials (Paperback)

The clearest explanation of game programming I have come across.

I bought this on a whim after seeing it mentioned in a forum thread, and I am glad I did. The author avoids over-explaining, which keeps the pace up but means you need to pay attention. The book rewards careful reading. Skimming it would be a mistake. This is the book I wish had existed when I started working with game programming.

I got a lot out of this, even if a few sections felt rushed.

This is the third book I have read on game programming this year, and it is comfortably the best of them. Some of the diagrams are dense and I had to reread a few sections, though that may just be me. It is denser than the page count suggests, and I found myself slowing down around the middle. Good value for the price and worth the time it takes to work through properly.

Almost excellent. A second edition could easily push it to five stars.

I bought this on a whim after seeing it mentioned in a forum thread, and I am glad I did. The author clearly knows the subject deeply and has thought hard about how to teach it. Some of the diagrams are dense and I had to reread a few sections, though that may just be me. Solid, and I would buy another book from this author without hesitation.
