ENDGAME TACTICS
"There is considerable instructional content in the book. But the winning
factor for the judges was the sheer entertainment value - a rare
commodity in the chess world these days."
From the Judges' Report, the English Chess Federation's
2006
Book of the Year Award
"The instruction indeed comes with a spoonful of sugar. It cannot but help to
improve your chess, painlessly, even enjoyably.
The annotations are light and sometimes quite witty."
Don Aldrich, ChessToday
"A marvellous book. Recommended for every club player."
Jules Welling, Schaaknieuws
"A fantastic collection of endgame positions rom actual play. Van Perlo's
respect for the game, his delight in every little twist, is undeniable.
And it is infectious."
Glenn Petersen at ChessCafe
"An irresistible collection of more than 1,100 endgame
ticks and traps. A superb book, highly instructive."
Paul Motwani, The Scosman
"Quite a powerul book. It does not wish to drill, it just wishes to entertain.
And it does!"
Gerhard Josten, Rochade Europa
"A colouful mix of combinations, tricks, blunders, instructional examples
and curiosities. An unusual chess book with a vey special charm."
S
chach Magazine
"All chess life
is
here: brilliant wins, amazing draws and not inrequently
defeat snatched rom the jaws of victory."
British Chess Magazine
"A milestone in achievement for the endgame."
Bob Long, Thinkers Press
"Really excellent work. Very suitable for the vast majority of chess players
who want to improve."
Andrew Martin on ChesBase Radio
"The thing's addictive! ( ...) You can absorb undamental lessons
while being entertained."
John Watson, The Week In Chess
'As a coach, I deinitely understand the importance of beefing up my
juniors' endgame skills. However I also realised that chess endgame studies
are the last thing that truly excites them. ( ...) Thus, instead of starting them
on endgame principles, it only made sense to start them off by showing them
the sunny side of endgames: the tactical ireworks."
Edwin Lam, ChessMate Magazine
"Destined to achieve classic status."
Chess Life
"It is hard to believe that a simple collection of endgame positions could be
so entertaining but Van Perlo's sardonic comments
give the book a unique lavour."
Ian Rogers, Sun-Herald
"I
recommend this book very strongly and urge you to improve your play
by reading it from cover to cover."
Eric Schiller
"Excellent."
Alex Baburin, Chess Today
"An entertaining romp trough more than
1,100
examples of
endgame tricks and traps."
Douglas Bryson,
S
cotland on Sunday
"A wonderful book."
John Donaldson
"Did the theme 'endings' always seem a bit dusty to you? Thanks to Van
Perlo it really sts (perhaps for you for the first time?) to shine."
Peter Doggers, ChessVibes
"his book has several tactical twists and tuns on each page, which should
convince you that the endgame is deinitely more interesting
than you probably imagined, and it is a phase
where many half points can be picked up -or thrown away."
im
Harding, The Kibitzer
"The most enjoyable endgame book I've ever read. I've always loved tactics
books, and his is the first endgame book I've ever encountered with this
approach. Middlegame actics books like this helped me reach master level; I
wonder how fr an endgame tactics book could have helped me go?
I
never
found endgames as much un to study (till now)."
Hal Bogner, Chess Magnet
S
chool
'There are
1,105
examples of endgame tricks and clever traps that prove it's
worth staying alert, even in the late stages of the game."
Mark Donlan, Chess Horizons
"During three years
(1999-2002) I
spent four aftenoons a week as a chess
instructor in the 'Penitenciana', he convict prison in Lisbon. As you can
imagine, the atmosphere in there is not like paradise, but all
I
can remember
is that many times the prisoners and
I
laughed our heads off while playing
through the positions of Van Perlo's collection."
Rini Luyks, chess coach, Lisbon, Portugal
