This post just proves that you are not in it for the money or to boost your ego but for the education of others, but then, most of us on here know how free you have been with your knowledge and advice on this forum.
So, Thank You.

Well, I do want the book to be successful and to hopefully make a living out of writing more of them! :)

My experience of the reaction to this book so far is that once people come into physical contact with it - actually see the size and quality of it - that they think it is a quality book and worth its RRP of £20. So please show it to people...

Well, it's officially out. :)

The page for it on Amazon's website is now open for people to write reviews (provided you've ever bought anything from Amazon you can review anything they sell regardless of where you bought it).

Currently celebrating this milestone with champagne and jellied eels. :)

Going to have to wait to get my hands on this - on my Xmas list. Congrats though on getting this out - I've been following its progress since you first mentioned in on here. Looking forward to Xmas now!!
i know it's taken a lot of work to get to this point so best wishes with sales - I'm sure it will do well and the previews look great.

Well I must say it's a great book. Great photos and very informative. Definitely not a field guide due to the size. I think this will be very helpful to a noobe like myself.

Glad you like it.

If anybody does review it on Amazon, please could you let me know. I suspect Amazon are rejecting perfectly legitimate reviews because they think those reviews have come from my friends and family! I was expecting more than one by now, but there's only one appeared... :-(

Just left a (i hope ) a positive review for Geoffs book on Amazon.

I was lucky enough to get a pre release copy, so have had a good couple of weeks to put this book through its paces.
I have to say, i am very impressed, it is a very concise, well laid out book. Plenty of information on the different species and, most importantly, accurate (a problem i have had with many fungi ID books).
It isn't small enough to be a pocket guide, but, with the amount of info contained, it is well worth popping in the car.
This will definitely be going on the same shelf as Roger Philips, (it is different, as it concentrates more on edible species than Roger).

Only a brief review as i am no Shakespeare. But, this really is a good book, and the more we use it, the more it is becoming invaluable.
