Default SNG/\"small tournament\" books

i know we've had these threads before, but does anyone know of any books coming for SNG's/"small tournaments"

i suppose miller's book is coming on smaller stakes no-limit (i read recently may 2006).

and the harrington books are good, but my biggest criticism is that the books move from deep stack to heads-up pretty quickly. before anyone pounces on me, check the table of contents and see for yourself. and don't forget, i believe dan makes reference to the first part of part 2 as not being able to fit into the first book.

if you sit tight waiting for cards in say a 4 table tourmanent, the blinds become an issue pretty fast. and if you play with decent players, alot of them will notice that you play very few hands. hard to win too many chips from others, although if you survive longer, your tight image is very valuable.

probably like many others, i feel like i need more guidance in the medium range where i have 10-15 times the combined blinds and the cards have been running cold.

any thoughts? i think there is a need for a definitive book for SNG/"smaller" $$$$$ no-limit tournament book (and cash, but that's another thread)... my sense is that miller's book will be it.

sorry, i forgot all about "kill phil" when i wrote this. i get the sense it work pretty well in these games where blinds become an issue really fast.

thanks in advance for any responses!
