Summary: algebraic geometry: the real stuff
Comment: The book is beautifully written and easy to read, with emphasis on geometric picture instead of abstract nonsense. By far the best introduction to algebraic geometry for string theorists.

Rating: 5
Summary: Work of Art
Comment: This is an amazing book with an amazing subject (complex algebraic geometry). Every section presents something interesting and wonderful. I've only read chapters 0 (Complex manifolds, Hodge theory), 1 (Divisors & line bundles, vanishing theorems, embeddings), and 2 (Riemann surfaces). I had had a bad experience with alg geom before this book. Required reading for mathematicians in complex manifolds, algebraic geometry, or string theorists. There are some very trivial typos scattered, but nothing problematic in the least (like capital lambda instead of a big wedge, or indices). If you read the book carefully you will get a lot out of it.

Rating: 5
Summary: Absolutely indispensable
Comment: This book is fabulous - it is an indispensable reference for complex algebraic geometry. It is very clearly written and ideas are always motivated by examples and problems. Moreover, if you want to learn modern algebraic geometry, it's imperative to learn the classical case (over the complexes - which in practice is easier to work in) in order to understand the generalisations a la Grothendieck.
