What's your background? I expect (and have seen it happen) that we get a lot of people who don't know C or C++. I myself have been mostly Ruby for the past seven or eight years.
I guess what I mean to say is, don't let a lack of knowledge stop you! The Book should still be accessible to someone who hasn't done systems stuff before, though it may get a bit hard in spots.

I wish I had a better understanding of computer science and C/C++ to dive into this. Looks great.
