I've read 3 AZ-900 Fundamental books and this one by far is the best. I like that the author goes a little deeper to explain things. I found it well worth the money.

I sat AZ900 quite some time ago but had to pick up a copy anyway because the diagrams alone are proving invaluable for training new starters. Great to see the recent sku changes acknowledged also.
