It's good but there's a lot of spelling mistakes that make some parts kinda frustrating . For example in the chapter about basic particles the object particle '을' is written as '올' multiple times so it's just confusing. I think this book needs to be reviewed and corrected because I've noticed other little errors to. Normally I wouldn't be so bothered because mistakes happen but with a language book like this I think spelling is vital.

I'm enjoying this so far but I can't seem to use the downloadable material it claims to come with. It restricts me from completely understanding what I'm learning about.

I have a hard copy of this book. Was at around chapter 7 and so far it has been great. Easy to understand and I enjoy reading it.
