I have read atleast 2-3 other books on HTML and HTML5. The following is my feedback on HTML5 in Easy Steps.

Pros:
1) Value for money!!
2) Easy to use and understand
3) Especially valuable for somebody who is starting with HTML for the first time.

Cons:
1) Does not cover the newer dynamic features of HTML 5 like Geo Location etc. For the same Head First HTML 5 is excellent.
2) It is not great for somebody who is looking for only new HTML 5 features.

This book covers almost all the important topic in HTML5 and explains every topic in very easy language . This book is very cheap and provides a foundation of HTML5.
A recommended book for beginners who have some knowledge about HTML4 , after reading this a beginner should explore of his own or think of going for some professional book available in the market

Really a simple and good book for those who are looking for something about the HTML5. But serious developers may not like this book, as this doesnt cover concepts in details. Still a nice attempt and a must for all novice.

if you want to learn html5 you must purchase this book as this book is very good for learning html5.
but make sure you practice it also otherwise this book is of nouse

value of money.. Printing misstakes are Lesser then other books..but if should be colord page looks better
