I just got a copy myself, and it's difficult to tell how big it truly is from the picture. The thing is so huge it's not even clear whether or not it's meant to be read. (And yet, the graphic layout of every page and the overall attention to detail is stunning.)  It's never actually going on sale though, this was a limited edition that was created for Kickstarter. He does have two earlier books that are compilations of his best blog posts, and there is a third volume coming out soon. If my math is correct it looks like there are 2,120 copies of the 'mammoth edition' in print. It’s a collection of all his blog posts.
