I have searched on amazon and could not find a book on lucene.net. Have you guys came across a decent book on lucene.net?

A: 

There's 'Lucene in Action' for Java. It's quite similar.

You may want to look at: Lucene In Action.

Since Lucene.NET is a .NET port of the project, you may find it covers the necessary concepts, even though it's for Java. There should be a 2nd edition of it coming out soon.

The book covers:

  • How to integrate Lucene into your applications
  • Ready-to-use framework for rich document handling
  • Case studies including Nutch, TheServerSide, jGuru, etc.
  • Lucene ports to Perl, Python, C#/.Net, and C++
  • Sorting, filtering, term vectors, multiple, and remote index searching
  • The new SpanQuery family, extending query parser, hit collecting
  • Performance testing and tuning
  • Lucene add-ons (hit highlighting, synonym lookup, and others)
  • Foreworded by Doug Cutting, the inventor of Lucene
