At the moment, you can either get your copy direct from the publisher or else from Amazon.

You can register your interest on the Veloce website in which case they will tell you when the book comes into stock:
http://www.veloce.co.uk/shop/account/st ... onolctf581

Alternatively, you can pre-order it now on Amazon. Publication date is May 6:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/184584 ... ref=plSrch

It's a completely new book Kev. Don't worry though, there'll be news on that 'first' book later on this year. That's as much as I'm allowed to tell you at the moment but watch this space..

Glad you liked it Dave.
I think it's a book we've all wanted and needed within the 'Sud community for quite a while now, wouldn't you say?
