Except of course that there are presently only two parts - but based on those two they are going to need to raise the intensity a lot if they are going to cover enough ground to have the reader doing useful stuff with DBI by the end of the fifth
Possibly a better introductory tutorial IMO is that of Nik Silver [leeds.ac.uk] which has been widely recommended in comp.lang.perl.misc in the past and never seriously criticized although it probably is getting a little old now.

One that I like is Robert's Perl Tutorial [netcat.co.uk]. It falls more toward the chatty end of the spectrum, but I've always been a sucker for local color (colour?) in a beginner-oriented tutorial.
