Which book do you suggest after K&R?
Thanks in advance

I first read K&R in 1980 and I still occasionally reread bits. One of
these days I might look for another C book. Maybe I was just lucky
enough to get enough exposure to real life code. Maybe K&R is all you
you need to read, provided you fully understand what you read.

Deep C Secrets - Peter van der Linden
C Unleashed - Richard Heathfield

Practice is the most important, but I still think that <<C Expert
Programming>> worth reading.

Order matters?

Both books serve a different purpose: the first is a fine read
discussing common pitfalls and issues you might run into when using C
in practice (why pointers are not arrays, linking, etc) and has some
nice examples of true historical C accidents. The latter is a pretty
complete bible discussing a lot of different algorithms implemented
and C and has some good real-life examples with complete programs.
Richard Heathfield is a regular poster on c.l.c. as well, probably
happy to you out with any questions you might have about the
book. (If he's not too busy handling spinoza1111's flames)

C Unleashed is not very good like K&R I think. It is disjoint as it is a
collection of work from many people. Also it is not printed anymore
because it was not popular enough.
