Default The best Pot limit omaha high book?

I didn't find that in search engine so sorry if that question has been asked already and I am quite sure it was. I want to learn PLO high (playing hold'em now) and I wonder which is the best book to start. I have Play poker like the pros and Super system 2, but something more specific would be good.

Ty for advice GL at the tables

Ditto

Sam Farha's book is due out in October and should be interesting.

Ciaffone's book is good although it is small and includes other forms of Omaha also. I was a little disappointed with Slotboom's book which did not include enough strategy regarding play with a deeper stack, it is mostly just a short stack strategy. I really liked Stewart Reuben's "How good is your Pot Limit Omaha" though I didn't always agree with his plays.

If you want to get just one, get the Reuben book, and read these forums for strategy refinement and better preflop play.

Discuss, please. What is wrong with it? I know it gets negative press from people that hate shortstackers but do you have other reasons to dislike this book?
