I just won a raffle and I get one free Java book, any book.  I get to
pick.

Barring smart-a.s answers like vintage autographed first printing
copies, and not a box-set bookshelf type of thing, what book would you
choose?

A nice big fat expensive one please!

If money really is no object, then I can custom write a book for you.

I should've listed that under "smart-a.s".  Oh well, I can't list
infinity.

Or, if you're not a beginner, Java Cookbook from O'Reilly.

O'Reilly's most expensive books seem to be Java Swing 2nd Ed. (I don't
like the 1st Ed. though) or Java Black Book 2nd Ed. (2001, a bit elderly?).

Whichever one is next in your career goals.
