"I bought another book about CFEngine a few weeks ago, and at half of it, I was not able to understand anything about CFEngine yet. The philosophy around promises, presented and explained by Mark Burgess videos wasn't there, and I almost gave up on CFEngine. It was just bad examples, dumb recipes, going against what the author of CFEngine wanted.
Then I bought this book, and I saw the light! I've now read the book and I'm writing clean CFEngine recipes with the feeling of doing a good job, which won't block me in the future.
This *is* the book about CFEngine 3.
Start with this one if you want to commit to the real CFEngine philosophy, the productive and clean one."

- The best book on CFEngine3 I've found (not that there's a whole lot of competition in that particular space). Plenty of guidance and worth owning if you have to do any work with CFEngine3.
- I already wrote a long review of this book, if you want to read it google for "cmdln learning cfengine3 review"
The short version is Buy it!
I can't recÂomÂmend this book enough. If your just learnÂing CFEngine 3, if you are versed but not an expert and you like CFEngine you will like this book. If you meet all those criÂteÂria and you don't like the book, I'll buy you a beer if we ever meet.
...
