Why is everyone so excited about this book? Is chris a takeaway chef? Is this a free ebook?
What leads you to believe that everyone is excited about this book, BMB ? From my reading of the forum, some are excited and impatient, some are ambivalent, some are sceptical and some are simply content to wait for it to appear and then judge it on its merits. And some, of course, have no interest at all.
To answer your more specific questions : (a), no Chris is not; he is working with Sam, who is; and (b) no, it will not be free, but a price has not yet been announced.
