I received a copy of "Beginning Groovy and Grails—From Novice to Professional" book by Apress written by
Christopher M. Judd, Joseph Faisal Nusairat, and James Shingler. The book takes you quickly through concepts of Groovy in the first three chapters and then takes you into the depth of building Web Applications using Grails in the rest of the book. If you are looking into starting out with Grails, this is certainly a book for you. Congratulations to the authors.
