I had authored the book on Kibana named Kibana Essentials which is aimed at beginners.  
I would love to get your reviews on the book.

Do you have discount codes you could share with the community at all? It's pretty pricey for an ebook ☹

Hi Mark

Unfortunately I do not have any discount codes which I can share with the community.

First off, thanks for writing a book on Kibana! I hope it helps someone get stated, beyond the use of our [Getting Started](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/getting-started.html) tutorial.

If you're looking for a review from one of us at Elastic, please feel free to DM me. It's kind of hard to review a book that costs $30 and the preview is fairly limited, but if you have a free code, I would be happy to take a look at least to give you feedback on technical accuracy.
