Beginners book for .net and c#?

Question

Hello. I know i am asking a silly question, the thing is I wanted to do a project where i am thinking to build a database with a front end using .net or c#. I am totally new to these languages. I thought posting here would give many experts advice. Can anyone tell me which book to prefer for it? (I would be glad if the book was a pdf online )

Thank you.

Hi,

There are many awesome books for C# beginers. You can use "HeadFirst C#" or "Begining C#" to give a start. Once u get hands on practice on C#, then you can try "Illustrated C# 2008" and/or "Inside C#" books. These books does not cover all the features of C#, but these will give you detailed description of features of C#.
