Beginner's Guide to Game Animation Programming offers a compelling take on Game Animation, though not without flaws. While the treatment of C/C++ Programming is excellent, I found the sections on Game Development less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Game Development that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing C/C++ Programming more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Graphics will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Animation Systems, if not the definitive work.

At first I wasn't sure about Game Development, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Animation Programming 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 Programming. What I appreciated most was how the book made Game Development feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!
