The Ackerman books are in 2 volumes, official release is Feb 2024, published by VI.

Multidimensional q&a, Parallax, and Darren's Notes have all been fantastic reads.

I can't wait for Phedon to release Orpheus, Orion was full of gold.

For information, my book of routines Braindump came out this year. It's a collection of my professional routines and presentations from the last 30 years, along with a bunch of essays on things (Busking, dealing with hecklers and stage fright as well as others), and the final section is an analysis of twenty one shows I did in the Edinburgh Fringe with set lists and handling tips. The breakdown is about 70% stage, 30% close up, and everything except one routine (the reason for which is explained) has been performed for real audiences in public shows.
