This is about books as learning resources.

For everyone looking to learn Meteor the first 8 chapters of Discover Meteor are available for free for the next week. It is probably the starting book for everyone :) https://book.discovermeteor.com/starter

Also the Manning book Meteor in Action is 50% off the next week with the code jiafinal50 The book is in heavy development with updates every couple of weeks. However it is still not finished and lacks some advanced chapters still. http://manning.com/hochhaus/?a_aid=yauh&a_bid=aeff5509

Apress also has a book called Beginning Meteor but it has almost no relevant content as of yet and no updates in the last months. http://www.apress.com/9781430268369

All Packt titles are hopelessly outdated for version 1.0, so you better stay away from them.

Also, as a shameless plug, beginning web developers are quite fond of my book about Meteor:

It'll be a couple of days before a (completely) revised version is released for 1.0 though.
