William Mounce is publishing a "Graded Rreader" of NT Greek as a companion
to his wonderful _Basics of Biblical Greek_ and _Morphology of Biblical
Greek_.

(It should be available "real soon" if it's not already out. Some sources
--e.g. CBD-- have been offering the book since at least January; at least
that's when they accepted my order ;-)
