    Guru's Guide to Transact-SQL by Ken Henderson is my most-read book on SQL Server.

    -SQLBill

    Haven't heard of this one before and all I can find is a version written in 2000. Do you know if this book has been updated or do you think the core of it is still useful for learning?

    It has not been updated. Unfortunately Ken Henderson died at a very young age. Which is a shame because his books were absolutely, bar none, the best.
