Dear, Ruoshi Sun,

First of all, thanks for all your translations of the awesome classical books on Go

Secondly, I was wondering if there were any digital versions of them, I travel most of the time, and I would buy almost all your books if there were digital copies (Kindle or Smart go books)

Kind Regards

Hi there,

Thank you for your interest! Sorry for my late reply as I don't check here very often.

I received such requests before and I looked into it. Unfortunately, there's no easy way to convert these books into Kindle/SmartGo format. I have thought about PDF, but it may not be mobile-friendly.

I can't promise anything, but in ascending order of likelihood:

  • Kindle is almost impossible. I tried their conversion tool and it doesn't handle the go diagrams correctly. The only way to make this work would be to convert the go diagrams into image files.
  • SmartGo is feasible, but again it will require a complete redesign of the books and involve a lot of extra work.
  • PDF is the most likely. I have yet to find a good platform.

I appreciate your message and your encouragement means a lot to me.

Best, Ruoshi

I am pleased to inform you that the PDF version of all 8 titles are now available on Patreon. The links can be found in the table on my Senseis page.
