As far as I know you're pretty much on your own until the book is 
available, the documentation is your best bet. If you know another C 
style language, the example at
http://digitalmars.com/d/2.0/index.html is probably a good starting 
point if you want a general overview of how things look/feel. If you can 
understand that you should be able to adapt it and start working on your 
own programs. From there you can use the search feature on the same site 
to find information about specific features or find library functions. 
If you get stuck, the people on D.learn will be able to help you along 
with anything you need :)

I don't know how up to date it is, but there's also 
http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi which has a couple of links for 
learning D as both a first or second language, I haven't check if it's 
for D1 or D2 though. It'll probably be a bit of a bumpy ride learning D2 
until the book is released and it comes out of alpha... It is currently 
at a feature freeze, so hopefully it won't be long.

Good luck :)
