However, for this one I plan to make an exception as I have consulted a ridiculous number of books on the Colle, Pirc and King's Indian, and in some of them I found a little information which I included in the book, but mostly I checked that Summerscale's suggestions from 1998 had not been refuted (or superseded by clearly better lines). So in a way I feel listing these books in a bibliography would be misleading. The manuscript is now with Gambit's editorial staff and they may disagree with this view and ask me to include a bibliography anyway.<br /><br />That being said Palliser's two books on the Colle were very useful as was Vigus' 'The Pirc in Black and White'. I had problems finding a recent and reliable source on the line 1.d4 f5 2.Bg5 but probably I will return to that subject in a blog entry one of the next few days.<br /><br />I am glad you liked the London book. I am still fond of it but it's already in need of an overhaul. <br /><br />The Killer Repertoire book had very little overlap with my London book but I did some research on the line 1.d4 d5 2.Nf3 c5 which may influence a future update of the London book.Sverre Johnsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00796086172553035906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4097677957983331811.post-27188852936816011802009-12-03T16:34:11.046+01:002009-12-03T16:34:11.046+01:00Is it possible to grasp an idea in advance of the ...Is it possible to grasp an idea in advance of the bibliography you've used, just to know from where are you building upon?<br /><br />In this book, is there some update of your london system files (congratulations for 'Win with the London System', I'm enjoying it very much)?<br /><br />Best wishes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4097677957983331811.post-41548364551626749812009-12-02T13:30:28.275+01:002009-12-02T13:30:28.275+01:00The book is scheduled for March 2010.

More information will follow in the next few weeks but I must restrict myself somewhat as Gambit Publishing should have the right to inform about their products.Sverre Johnsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00796086172553035906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4097677957983331811.post-80405431459061699382009-12-02T13:21:10.567+01:002009-12-02T13:21:10.567+01:00Sounds like a really interesting project!
