I don't suppose there is much point in asking when does the English version is due to come out ...
p.s.
Didn't quite understand the MySQL remark ...

That MySQL remark came out thanks to automatic text completition Should have simply meant "my".
I, too, wonder, if the publisher thinks about an English translation. Gonna ask them about it.But for now I guess their focus is on the German speaking market.

Funny, this forum runs on a MySQL database.

Obviously I'd love to see an English co-edition, too.

A few days ago the publisher released a little promotion- clip.

I proudly announce that I today hold in my hands the first copies of my book. Feels great, despite all the ups and downs I encountered and the flaws the work may have. Thanks to the DTF for being such a supportive community,  especially
@BlueKrono, @postsaurischian, @ceratopsian and of course the one and only @DinoToyForum himself!

For the German speaking members who would like to get a copy, PM me please and we will talk about everything. Please do not order at Amazon by any means, direct orders help me most. Thank you!

[DinoToyForum]

Congratulations, looks great!

[postsaurischian]

 Wonderful!!
 Funny coincidence: I've just sent an order by mail yesterday, old-fashioned as it might be .

[BrontoScorpio]

Love the  hilarious cover

[Libraraptor]

Thank you everyboy, I appreciate it

[ceratopsian]

I'm sure at times you must have felt this moment would never arrive. Congratulations!

[Libraraptor]

Yeah, @ceratopsian, that´s definitvely the case. Thanks for all your congratulations. Now it is up to me to bring my work to the people. Selling books is no easy business, even if you do have a serious message to convey in a sometimes hilarious way.
But I am still confident I won´t waste all my money for this project. And even if, it totally is worth it. Writing and marketing a book teaches you so much. Especially learning to live with both mistakes and enthusiasm.And it all has only just begun.

Promoting the book in the LWL- Museum für Naturkunde in Münster

Exciting times, enjoy it, as I bet people are enjoying reading the book!

[ceratopsian]

That sounds like an excellent venue to capture the right audience for the book.

Got your book yesterday and have read it all through by today. Fun and entertaining read. A lot of society criticism in there, with most of which I can sympathize. If you do not know this already, I believe that you would enjoy the writings of Charles Eisenstein.

I really wish I could read German.

By the way, I came across this website apparently for the book, is this your doing @Libraraptor? http://www.palaeo-nerds.de

Yes, it is, I wanted to embed the book into something larger and would like to do  a little Making Of someday

But first I will read the audiobook and who knows, maybe someday there will be an English translation.
