The new bouldering guide (Vol 1, covering the mountains but not the coast) is supposed to be out before Christmas.

Should be worth waiting for, there's been a lot more discovered since 2017.

There's a third edition due out soon but I'm not sure exactly how soon. I understand it will be split in to 2 volumes due to the number of new problems/areas included.

If nowhere has the second (2017, colour) edition still in stock and you want it soon, I would keep an eye out for a second hand copy on here and eBay etc. 

The first (2004, black and white) edition is missing a lot of crags and problems that were developed in the 13 years after it was published.

Edit: Beaten to it above.

If it is going to be out before Christmas, then it needs to be at the printers already. I doubt that is the case but I may be wrong.

Could be that it is, I don't know. Simon P said it was close to completion a couple of weeks ago.
