Thank you very much Alam Shah for the early link to the publisher of The Invincible Krises 2! As soon as I saw it I ran upstairs for my credit card. They have a secure site and postage to the US was just $15.00. It seems only fair that collectors get a chance at reserving a copy before the scalpers jack up the price on what's left. I thought the first volume a lovely little book, small format (just 5.5 by 6.5 inches for those who don't have a copy), but with excellent photos (- no, I have not yet acquired KERIS JAWA: Antara Mistik dan Nalar, as I am still clinging to the hope an English version is in the works).

Gee, it's the same site that I've provided.

Vogan, the English version of the said book will be out, sooner or later.

I just asked the same question about this book on the magazine thread (since Alan mentions it there). Do you speak with any authority on this or are you just assuming? If it will be "later" that's fine, but if it never happens and then the original Indo book goes out of print i will be screwed paying higher prices for a hard to find book. Oh well...

And does anyone know what the dimensions of the new Invincible will be. I am seriously hoping for a much larger book than the last. Great photos, but so damn small.

Shahrial, I've had the opportunity to read the MT Arifin book now.

My mother always told me never to say anything if I could not say something nice.

I would prefer to reserve comment on KERIS JAWA, by M T Arifin.

I'd say that Invincible Keris#2 is a "must have". I will be very interested in the level of accuracy shown in this second edition.
