>Tomas Petricek's "Real-world functional progamming" as well as "Expert F#" by Don Syme are excellent introductions to the language.
I found both books kind of lacking, the former has examples in C# which I found distracting and the latter was too dry.
If F# gets a book in the league of "joy of clojure" it would greatly help push F# into the mainstream.
Meanwhile, this is the best book if you like doing exercises as you learn( why wouldn't you? ). Not sure why the book is so underrated.
