Many club and tournament players are excellent tacticians, but get lost when it comes to the endgame. These strategies are a must for those who want knowledge about the endgame to use with confidence--and deadly effect.
"This is a collection of concrete analysis of different endgame positions produced in several training sessions with IM-level players. This means quality and reliability of the analyses and fresh material. In several cases former judgements and evaluations are corrected. Lutz' first book is a little bit like the author himself: correct, dry and with not too many words. The plus: You will improve your endgame knowledge and moreover your tactical and analytical skill by working through this book - as it is with every serious work on chess. The minus: There are few verbal explanations about the basics of that certain endgame-type and few guidance or abstracts for your practical play in similar situations. Moreover the chosen 40 positions are only a short glimpse into the world of endgame-magic. I would recommend it only to experts" - reviews by Peter Oppitz
