The Kindle Fire is an amazing tablet.  I've owned one for over a year now and have used it extensively for content consumption such as reading emails, watching videos, and browsing online.  I thought I knew everything there was to know about it, but was curious given the low price of this particular ebook and all that it promised to teach the reader.  So I took a leap of faith and ordered my very own copy.As I begin reading this very informative book, I was surprised to learn just how little I knew about the full capabilities of the tablet.  Not only does this comprehensive text cover the basic subjects in detail, such as how to transfer files through a USB connection or download directly from the Amazon website, but there are features such as parental controls and advanced networking which many users may not know about.  Furthermore, the various ways in which the Kindle Fire can interact with other applications such as Skype, IMDB, Twitter, and Facebook are discussed, offering a unique perspective on the subject.  Overall, given the amount of information presented in this particular ebook, it is well worth the price.Another thing which the reader will appreciate is how the information is formatted specifically for the Kindle.  All too often books are formatted for the Kindle reader in such as way as to make it very difficult to find useful information.  This is typically the result of either not adequately naming chapters or refusing to link to subchapters.  With The Complete Kindle Fire HD User Guide, the author includes dozens of links in the main menu to various useful topics.  This allows for the reader to skip just to the parts which they need to read.  As such, the book is a valuable reference for future use, when you don't want to read everything but just about a specific feature.All too often other Kindle books I've come across don't really offer anything more that isn't already covered by the owner's manual itself.  This particular book is one of the few exceptions.  Not only does it clarify many of the features and instructions which aren't especially easily to understand in the original manual, but the author goes a step further to delve into specific topics. As a result, by the time readers have finished the text, they have a comprehensive understanding of the Kindle Fire's full capabilities.  Not only will they be able to enjoy the Kindle Fire more, but they'll also be better prepared to diagnose and correct any problems which may occur.  Overall, I highly recommend this book to all Kindle Fire owners.
