Complex analysis book for Algebraic Geometers I know that there exist many questions on this site on complex analysis books but my question is more specific than that. I am looking for recommendations for a concise complex analysis book but with a view towards algebraic geometry/ complex manifolds. I have studied smooth manifold theory before and it would be interesting to see it combined with complex analysis in the complex setting (all manifolds that I'd studied before were real manifolds). Any recommendations for such a book?
 A: From Holomorphic Functions to Complex Manifolds by Klaus Fritzsche and Hans Grauert is a great introduction to complex manifolds with also a very nice course on several complex analysis. It's not really oriented on algebraic geometry, though.
Hans Grauert is one of the founder of the complex geometry.
A: There is Complex Geometry: An Introduction by Daniel Huybrechts. I can thoroughly recommend it when you come from the angle of algebraic geometry.
A: An extremely good but shamefully underrated book is Łojasiewicz's Introduction to Complex Analytic Geometry.
The author, a renowned mathematician who discovered a very important inequality pertaining to analytic sets,  managed to write a book with the contradictory qualities of giving  very detailed explanations and proving quite  advanced results.
Indeed the book starts with the definition of a ring (!) and goes on to prove a sophisticated version (due to Thom and Martinet) of the Weierstrass preparation theorem, the Puiseux theorem, Remmert's proper mapping theorem,  Chevalley's theorem on images of constructible sets, the Cartan-Oka theorem on the coherence of the ideal sheaf of an analytic subset of $\mathbb C^n$, Chow's theorem on the algebraicity of analytic subsets of $\mathbb P^n$ (=the mother of all GAGA-type theorems!) , and much more.
The book is, alas, out of print but I suppose that many libraries have a copy.
A phonetic link
 The undersigned happens to know that some patronyms are considered difficult to pronounce, so here is a link with the correct pronunciation of our author's name. 
A: Complex analytic and differential geometry by J.-P. Demailly is freely available and an excellent choice (especially for several complex variables) if you have a background in algebraic geometry.
