I am thinking about ordering this book, but I haven’t seen it ‘in flesh’ so to speak. Anyone here who have it or at least have seen it? Is it a good book,,worth the price? ( The price will be about £40)

Hi Mrs Green,

All I can find for a review. Timber Press do a lot of books on Other Succulents but I don't think any include cacti in their definition of Succulents.

As you quote the price in Pound's I presume you are in the UK. If so Amazon had it on sale at £24.79p plus presumably postage so don't know if they still have it? However shop around on the Web before buying it as you should get it for less than £40.

For instance some others list it:-

Including W.H. Smith

If W.H. Smith have it in stock you could pop into one of their branches and look at it there before buying?

Thank you DaveW! The links you provided was very helpful! No I am not in the UK, the reason I gave the price in £ is that I didn’t think Norwegian kroner would make much sense on an English language forum.
