The Practical Endgame Bible Guidelines for the Fundamentals of the Endgame there are many books

devoted to basic endgames, even from the Middle Ages. Principles of typical endgames (such as

keeping the rook behind a passed pawn, not setting pawns on the same colored squares as your

bishop’s, distant pawns being more dangerous than central ones etc.) are well known too.

 

But what about “complex endgames”? I have in mind endgames with at least two pieces on each side;

well I don’t find them often nor sufficiently well-explained in the past! It is exactly this fact (together

with my passion and great endgame experience) that has motivated me to write this book (many

friends simply call me “Endgame Wizard” ).

 Guidelines for the Fundamentals of the Endgame

Over two decades of working as a coach has confirmed my opinion that endgames are the biggest

problem for young players. Today, in the computer era with a lot of information easily provided,

youngsters all over the world rather play blitz, or solve some tactical puzzles in a manner that is “the

faster the better” (or even spend time on some other chess disciplines).

 

All of this neglects the basis of chess – the importance of endgames! It is not uncommon that

everyday you can be witness to some strange endgame misunderstanding, even at the top level.

The Practical Endgame Bible

This is why I consider some of my favorite endgame books based on logic as the best I’ve ever read –

I learned the endgame from some of the best endgame players and authors. And this is why I want to

fill that gap in chess literature and to share my devotion, ideas, principles, opinions with you! I hope

you will enjoy this material and I am pretty sure you will broaden your endgame horizons.
