I realize the book expect a certain level of JSF and Ajax knowledge and I've read some of the Q&A's regarding this. One thing I noticed that wasn't touched on was whether or not the book assumes knowledge of creating custom components. I have both JSF In Action and Core JSF, niether of which do a very good job covering creating custom components.

My question is does your book cover this key concept in any length from a grounds up perspective and if not, could you recommend a book that does.

Thanks.

The book does not require prior knowledge about writing components. But, it is recommended that you are familiar with JSF and its concepts, plus knowledge about Ajax and, of course, Java/JSP.

The first 3 chapters will introduce you to JSF and writing JSF components. Chapter 4 introduces the client side technologies you are about to use to add richness.
Chapter 5-10 is a deep dive into JSF land to make the components you created in chapter 2-3 much richer.
