Well I haven't read it, but if it's anything like "The Universe is a Dream" it must be pretty good.
TUIAD, and this new book, are written in comic book format. They present ideas from the course, and cross-references them with pop culture stuff. Although it doesn't tell you at first that the ideas are from the course itself; to a casual reader it's just mind blowing concepts.
He uses symbols consistently to explain things like the Holy Spirit, the ego, true forgiveness and so on. Check out a "glossary of symbols" of The Universe is a Dream: http://www.alexandermarchand.com/symbols
I personally thought it was a lot of fun to read (and see!). It's a very good refresher, and to a newbie, a good introduction to the course.
I also read the first book of his "The Undreaming Chronicles" series: Revelations from the Holy Planet. It's about an alien taking Alex to her planet, in which ideas from the course are second nature. I found it kind of boring at first but then picks up and is really cool. This book continues to use the symbols presented in The Universe is a Dream, so it reinforces the concepts even more. For instance, the steps of "the separation" are explained really well, and there's an analogy of "the two pictures". Alex actually draws the two pictures, using the symbols, they're pretty neat.
So overall I enjoyed his books, and expect this one to be just as enjoyable as the others.
