ZCPR2 is unique unto itself.  It does not use anything from ZCPR1.

MY FEELING is that for new users, it would be best to go straight to
ZCPR3.  The installation manual is complete, and the online HLP files
tell you how everything works.  When the book comes out, all documentation
will be in hardcopy form, but that will not be for a while yet.

It will take a while to get used to the concepts of ZCPR3.  The Concepts
manual of ZCPR2 can still serve to provide the basis for ZCPR3 understanding,
but some items have changed, such as the named directory concept.

As with ZCPR2, the hard part of ZCPR3 is getting it up.  Once up, however,
it is quite easy to use.

For now, then, I recommend: get ZCPR3 and use the Concepts manual of ZCPR2
for understanding until the ZCPR3 book comes out.
