Having had the pleasure of working directly with the author for a number of years now, you are welcome to take my glowing review with a grain of salt. I would, however, suggest you also take it with some chili flakes, smoked paprika and a dash of garlic powder. After all, that's exactly what Mr. Gill manages to do in this book and his day to day work. Spice things up.In the forward, Chris thanks his co-workers for keeping him on task and ensuring this book gets finished. I can assure you I am not one of those co-workers he was referring to. I probably delayed the publishing of this book single-handedly because of how heavily I rely on his expertise on a day-to-day basis. But now everyone gets to lean on his experience and learn from a master of their craft.Congrats CG! And to anyone thinking of buying this book, rest assured it was written with passion and with a focus on making sure anyone can of any skill level can benefit from reading it.

I had the opportunity to read through Christopher Gill's AZ-801 exam reference book on Configuring Windows Server Hybrid Advanced Services. I highly recommend this book if you are preparing for the exam or just want to understand and learn advanced Windows Server configuration. This book along with Steve Miles' AZ-800 exam reference book are the perfect one-two punch for obtaining the Windows Hybrid Administrator Associate certification. The exercises are easy to follow and provide a great way to follow along and learn as you go through the chapters.
