Stop Searching.  Begin here . I am one of those freaks who would look at a bezillion books before settling with one. (Talking about computer books ofcourse!).   This is especially significant when it comes to XML because there is so much tech jargon out there & it is really hard find a book that does not get lost in the details & instead introduce us to the core right away.  This book does exactly that.  You will start writing decent xml right away.      The following will be helpful.    1.  HTML knowledge (a little)  2. The concept of scripts  3.  The concept of CSS  4. The concept of XML     When I say 'the concept of', I am only talking about a surface level, "Purpose of existence" kind.  Even if you don't know anything about XML, you will be fine with this book.    The book gradually introduces the concepts & does a very neat job of explaining new ideas.     Peace.
POS

Rehash of previous work . I was so disappointed.  This book is about 80% material that was previously published in a much classier book, A Wonderful Time.  Readers lucky enough to have the earlier book should not waste their money on this rehash
NEG

Koontz was hyped as King's sole competition for so long... . But I don't understand why after reading this book.  I saw flashes of Koontz as a contender with this story, but in the end the book limped along on half-drawn characters and stilted dialogue.  Koontz came up with a grand slam premise, and it was the strength of the premise that dragged me across the finish line.  Without that I'm not so sure I would've made it.      The characters aren't all badly drawn, but none of them really feel complete.  The dialogue is at times atrocious, at others simply frigid.  As a case in point, I have not forgotten--nor will I ever forget--the preposterousness with which one of the characters described the monster in detail AS HE'S BEING EATEN.  I almost took off my running shoes at that point.  Almost.      Koontz can write well when he puts his mind to it.  But Phantoms proves too stiff and underdeveloped to truly showcase his talent.  Pick up Intensity instead
