It's very solid if you have some Vagrant/sysadmin/DevOps background.

The book provides you a github repo with a vagrant environment, but some of the demos didn't seem to work and I noticed they worked when I do my own vagrants, you should be careful about that.

The book explains well everything from the basics of the puppet language to how to handle a couple of Clusters, it's done a good job for me me even though I'm working on 3.8 projects.
