Ok, first, an explanation of what C++ is. C++ is a programming language. It allows you to control your computer to do things. It doesn''t by itself support any games or anything. What that book will teach you is how to work with a DOS window. The best games you''re likely to manage are "Guess a number" type things. But even so, learn most of the stuff in it, at least through the basics of classes. After that, pick up a book on game programming.

Yeah, practise is the most important thing. If you haven''t already done so, get a compiler and actually practise stuff from the book - write some simple programs. It''s pretty much the only way to learn programming, IMHO.
