Unfortunately it's only volume 1 at the moment. So I'm currently ordering the Chinese translated version which is complete (3 volumes) and available in hardcover ![]() But I'll looking forward to the English version as well. |

I actually just got the first volume in english; it looks pretty interesting. It's three games commented in detail with some personal anecdotes thrown in. |

Did you get it directly from Baduktopia? I haven't gotten any reply from them after I emailed them. |

I got it from the AGA pro test; they gave a copy to all the entrants, one of whom gave it to me. |

The first volume is available in Europe and is stocked by Hebsacker Verlag in Germany. They are very efficient and post outside Germany. For information about the new series see: http://www.usgo.org/news/2012/09/badukt ... dol-vol-1/ |

Just bought all three volumes of the Chinese version - looks fantastic. The commentary is extensive and accessible for each game, and at roughly 100 pages per commentary, quite thorough as well ![]() |

I just bought this from gogameguru (good service, order online -> doorstep just under 3 days in the UK) and am liking it so far. Nicely formatted with not too many moves per diagram (similar to JF's Kamakura). |

I've been slowly working my way through this book and got to the end of game two today -- the page where the whole game is printed on one page -- they put the wrong game diagram on that page. They used the game diagram from the first game (with the ko moves from the second) now I have to find the game record and print it out myself. |
