Is "K&R C" still applicable

I relearning C; it's been years and whilst familiar the nuances are lost in time.

I originally learned C from K&R. However, I now see many people levelling criticism at K&R.

A chief example is http://c.learncodethehardway.org/book/learn-c-the-hard-waych55.html#x61-27200055

Top reasons seem to be that it's code style is overly terse, practises aren't applicable in larger programs and lead to memory leaks or are subject to attack in shared network accessible systems.

Do people feel these criticisms are fair? Do they matter to somebody learning C? If so, could people recommend a "modern" C book, preferably available for Kindle?
