A worthy (as expected) successor - [09 Oct 2007]
Successors are not always as expected. In this case you do get from this trio of authors, who are classics in their own right, just what you expect. In my own case, I needed to get good at OO Perl and fast. In three days, I covered the major chapters ...

Good follow up to the The Llama, but poorly organised - [14 Jul 2007]
If you've mastered The Llama , make haste to read this one. Even if you only want to do scripting with Perl, you'll eventually find you need data structures slightly more complicated than just flat arrays and hashes, and you need to know about references...

Good sequel to Learning Perl - [26 Jan 2007]
The first edition of this book was "Learning Perl Objects, References, and Modules". I never read that previous edition, so I can't comment on how that book stacks up against this new edition. This book is intended to pick up where Learning Perl left ...

Not As Good As Learning Perl - [11 Jun 2006]
'Learning Perl' by the same authors is one of my favorite books of all time in in the O'Reilly family of books. It's incredibly well written, easy to follow, and it's like having the best instructor you could want teaching you live and in person. As for...

Three years later, Sailors upgrade Perl navigation software - [04 Apr 2006]
This book updates the 2003 "Perl References, Objects & Modules" from the same authors, which described (in a humorous but also realistic way) a group of "Sailors" writing navigation software. First, I summarize the major changes of the new version...
