Advice on these books

cocos2d-x C++
#1

Hello,
I want to buy one of these to books and I would like to know your opinion about them:
Coco2d-x-cookbook by Akihiro Matsuura
That one looks pretty good. The author has 5 years of experience in cocos, and a cookbook type of book seens useful. My only concern is that it is from 2015, for cocos2d-x version 3.6. Is that still vaid for 2020?

The other one is
Cocos2dX Development Blueprints by Karan-Sequeira
It is also from 2015. I already have this one Cocos2d-x-Example-Beginners-Guide-Second-ebook which looks similar, so that´s why I was more interested in the cook book type, but I am worried it might be absolete in 2020.

What do you think? Should I wait for a book that is more up to date?
Cheers,

R

These books are old. But if you really want them I have extra physical copies I’d be happy to send them to you if the postage works out.

That would ve awesome. The problem si that i leave in Spain XD so it might end up costing more than Amazon prime. Si when You say old you mean they are mostly obsolete for the current API?
