Recommend me some books for learning PowerShell

[kennysarmy]

I'd really like to increase my knowledge in this area and do have some spare time at the moment as everything is running sweet (famous last words!)

 

If anyone can recommend a few books to read through that would be great.

Depends on what your powershell knowledge is at already....

 

Powershell for dummies is a very good introduction (I had to start here lol)

Powershell in Action (was a lot more advanced and where I mistakenly tried to start)

Have a look at Microsoft Virtual Academy, I'm on the "Getting Started with PowerShell 3.0 Jump Start" course currently, quite interesting.

I have "Learn Powershell in a Month of Lunches". I can tell you that it's taken me more than a month of lunches to get my head round Powershell but this book has taught me a lot. There are also a bunch of videos on Youtube which go with this book.
