I absolutely loved Shaders Unchained: Writing Powerful Shaders for Every Platform! It completely changed my perspective on Shaders. At first I wasn't sure about Shader Art, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Computers & Technology is so clear and relatable - it's like they're talking directly to you. I've already recommended this to all my friends who are interested in OpenGL & Vulkan. What I appreciated most was how the book made DirectX feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!

Debut Book Reviewer
Shaders Unchained: Writing Powerful Shaders for Every Platform offers a compelling take on Shaders, though not without flaws. While the treatment of HLSL is excellent, I found the sections on Game Development less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Computer Graphics that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Programming more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for GLSL will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on GLSL, if not the definitive work.
