FWIW,

This site gives you a "sunburst" view of it and claims to have it as an e-book.

Quality Chess has announced a new book titled Reimagining 1.e4 by local favorite Nikolaos Ntirlis. The publishing date is listed as 18 December 2024.

This looks like an ambitious project, with a complete, main line 1.e4 repertoire provided in ~300 pages. The big lines are the Spanish, the Open Sicilian, and 3.Nc3 against the French and the Caro-Kann. The full repertoire selections haven't been revealed, but from the excerpt we can tell the following:
  • Berlin: 5.Re1 and both 6.Nxe5 and 6.a4
  • Marshall: 8.h3
  • Russian: 3.d4
  • Kan and Taimanov: 5.Nc3 
  • Kalashnikov: 6.N1c3 a6 7.Na3 Be7 (7...b5 8.Nab1) 8.Nd5
  • Sveshnikov: 9.Nab1
  • Classical Sicilian: Rauzer
  • Najdorf: 6.Be3 e5 7.Nf3
  • Classical French: Stenitz
  • Winawer: 4.Ne2
Please be kind and share your opinion if you've gotten hold of this book!
