However, the text becomes annoying because of its mixture of jokes, writing style, inflated code snippets, poorly rendered graphics.Given how much the Akka library has changed over the last 8 years, I would advise anyone not to buy this book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comprehensive, if bug-riddled, akka story (UPDATED: The best out there right now) *by A***K on Reviewed in the United States on 10 April 2014* UPDATE: After some time passed since the reading of the book, and seeing as that there is really no other reference that comes even close to this one, I have to bump up my rating to 5/5. Even with all it's problems it is an excellent introduction to the "Actor" way of doing things. After reading this book it is easy to figure out the specifics from the official docs or from various other more specialized "patterns" books out there.I have to disagree with the negative review. After a careful reading of this book I got quite a lot out of it - how to use schedulers, error kernel pattern, introduction to logging, FSM, structuring the application with actors, dead letters, watches, strategies, supervisors.The humor did not bother me. Neither did the example. If you are a cover-to-cover type of reader, I think this book will be beneficial to you.The downside is that the book is riddled with bugs and errors. In fact, some of the code is straight up missing from the book. You can search online for a "fix" by danluu for the book's code (I also have an updated version of the airplane simulation source code - just google "airplane-akka drozdyuk")The other glaring problem (not solved by the "fixed" code above either) is the use of outdated akka version. The new Akka 2.2 deprecates methods like actorFor and ActorRef.isTerminated. I have a question posted regarding this on stackoverflow, which will hopefully get a good answer (or if I figure it out I'll post it there). Just search for "How do you replace actorFor?"I think what happened here is that the author ran out of time (or got bored) and hurried to finish the book, omitting a lot of details. It seems like the book was not proof-read (by a programmer) either. Unfortunately this is, as of today, the best akka book out there for anyone completely new to actors. Hope more akka books are on their way - it sure could use them! ### ⭐ Read the online documentation *by L***E on Reviewed in France on 29 March 2015* This book introduces main akka concepts with a never ending example you try to remember until chapter 10. The akka FSM dsl keywords are roughtly explained on chapter 9.Thus this book is too expansive. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/436412976-akka-concurrency](https://www.desertcart.at/products/436412976-akka-concurrency) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-05-05*
