The book is very well detailed. The book I believe is designed for people with PHP and web development experience. For beginners, the book will be a bit hard to absorb as some of the advance features that are not part of the basics are already brought up in the beginning, so this part can be a little confusing.

His explanation of annotations is good, and I will probably use it in my next project. That kind of dept is for me the reason to by books in the first place.

I consider myself fairly adept at laravel - I use it daily for some large and complex web application, have been using it for years. Like many developers, I'm self taught and learned a lot of what I know by doing. I kind of thought that this book was going to mostly cover stuff I already know, but being self taught it's easy to pick up blind spots without realizing it. To compensate for that I like to read some basic, foundational books about whatever framework or language I'm currently working in to make sure that my grounding is solid and maybe pick up a few tricks. I usually end up just skimming through stuff I already know and just picking up one or two new tricks or concepts, maybe shoring up my understanding of some of the core principles. With this book, in the first 50 pages I learned like 5 cool things that I didn't even know you could do in Laravel and can't wait to use. There's a *ton* of great stuff here. It's thorough, he clearly understands the framework inside and out. Well written, clearly organized, easy to follow - if you're interested in Laravel or even if it's your daily bread and butter, this is a book you should own and read.
