I have not the book myself, but I'd bet this 3...e5 is not even mentioned.

This "for club players" in the title... I am club player and I want the latest trends in theory when I buy a new book. Maybe I am an estrange club player. Shocked

I had a quick look through a display copy and I couldn't see 3...e5 covered anywhere, which is disappointing given its recent popularity.

Ravi Haria's recent book on the Rossolimo (Thinkers Publishing) covers 3...e5 in seven pages, ironically including a reference to a 2017 game Bologan - Korobov.

Does he cover e5? Its the current cutting edge mainline where black has no problems, at least not in several of my Correspondence Chess games where I was b!ackv vs several titled players rated higher than me?

I haven't been able to find Bologan's book on the Rossolimo either. The most recent title I've found on the subject is:
The Modernized Anti-Sicilians, Volume 1: Rossolimo Variation, by Ravi Haria from 2021, available from Forward Chess.

I assume this is the book you are talking about:

That was written by Golubev and not Bologan - I'd guess given the 2011 timeline that we're talking about his original book for Chess Stars.

I assume this is the book you are talking about:

I have in paperback, and I agree it is very good. The app book (for tablets) is less expensive.

That book (The Rossolimo Sicilian, New in Chess 2011) was great but is now somewhat outdated.
The Bb5 systems are still very topical - a good reason to publish an update:

The Rossolimo for Club Players
New Ideas and Strategic Plans in a Powerful Anti-Sicilian
by GM Victor Bologan
New in Chess, ~320 pages, ~29€, May 2022
https://www.amazon.de/Rossolimo-Club-Players-Strategic-Anti-sicilian/dp/94932572...

I have the book but read only few chapters. But what I have read was great!  The focus is mainly on a early Bxc6 by white.
The book has "variation trees with enough explanation" but no commented games.

I like the book and recommend it.

My guess after seeing his stuff on DVD's and his KID book is that anything from him is insta buy. I am insta buying his dvd's on open sicilian as soon as Chessbase release those for example. I think that once I am ordering my next package from Amazon rossolimo book will be there too.

I have Bologan's DVD on the Rossolimo, which was a bit dry but otherwise very good. I'd be interested to know how much more detailed the book is in comparison.

Has anyone got this book yet ? I've been waiting for it since the dvd came out and I'm still waiting thanks to delays at BookDepository.com. I've seen the book when I recently got a chance to call in to the London Chess centre and was impressed paging through it. Can anyone whet my appetite further with their impressions ?
