May I ask how many pages the book has? Also, I'm kind of towards the top end of the recommended range... are many of the reviewed kyu games 5k or higher?
Someday I want to be strong enough to earn KGS[-].

The book has 84 pages.
There are 50 game reviews on the CD

18 between 5k-2k players
11 between 5k-9k players (1 handycap game)
10 between a DDK and a SDK (4 hadycap games)
11 between DDK's

On the website you can find a preview with some example pages including the table of content of the book.

If there are more questions feel free to ask. I'd be happy to answer them.

My publisher is offering a 15% discount for "The Next Move" (digest size).
link freegame's Teaching School Webshop.

Disclaimer: Use coupon code FALLREAD305 at checkout and receive 15% off The Next Move. Maximum savings with this promotion is $10. You can only use the code once per account, and you can't use this coupon in combination with other coupon codes. Sorry, self-purchases (buying books that you've published) aren't eligible. This great offer ends on October 15, 2010 at 11:59 PM so try not to procrastinate! While very unlikely we do reserve the right to change or revoke this offer at anytime, and of course we cannot offer this coupon where it is against the law to do so. Finally, Lulu incurs the cost of this discount, so it does not impact the Author's proceeds of the book.

I think the the New Products/Upgrades/Sales forum was created for threads like this one?

My publisher is once more offering a 15% discount for "The Next Move" (digest size).

*edit: I didn't think this was the wrong forum, but if it is, a mod can move it I guess.
