Just got an update of the SmartGo Books app and noticed that Davies' L&D and Tesuji are now included. Thank you for continuing to make me re-buy books I already own!  (Actually, they can't be purchased yet, but I imagine that's just a delay on Apple's end and will resolve itself within hours or a day.)Here's hoping for Attack and Defense! (When? )

Soon for A&D sounds great! By the way, I still can't buy those two. The button says "available soon". Is that something on my end or is it the same for everyone? |

From Anders' twitter feed: Quote: “Tesuji” and “Life and Death” delayed as I forgot to have those in-app purchases reviewed with the updated app. Sorry about that! https://twitter.com/smartgo/status/232666142743875585 He's at the congress, so hopefully they'll be available soon after he returns. |

The latest app update has added “Get Strong at the Endgame” by Richard Bozulich. Lots of great problems in this one!

My problem with Get Strong at the Endgame is there are all these problems at the beginning, and I'm supposed to record how I think the board will go, and that just seems like a huge pain. But you're not supposed to read the middle of the book until you've done those initial problems because you're supposed to see how much you've improved. So the book sits on my shelf unread. Fix that problem with your newfangled software, and I will be your biggest fan. |

Actually the answers for the first section are presented along with the problems in the electronic version. My feeling is that working though the problems in that section & just noting which you get wrong is sufficient. Then after studying parts 2 & 3, try the first section again & see how you do on those you missed the first time. IAC, don't let that book gather dust! Unless you're already an endgame expert you'll get improvement from it even if you don't bother to do the before/after comparison.
