Fundamental Chess Endings
De to tyskerne har laget en stor og glimrende bok som gir oversikt og innsikt i alle de viktige sluttspillene type for type. Dette har blitt dagens ledende teoribok i sluttspill, et flott oppslagsverk, men utmerker seg i tillegg ved å inneholde en større andel typisk praktiske stillinger enn tidligere sluttspillverk, og også med noen øvingsoppgaver til hvert kapittel.
Encyclopedia of Chess Endings V
Et imponerende oppdatert verk til 2023 av over 2000 sluttspill med lette offiserer, altså løpere og springere. Som Informator-forlaget selv skriver:
Mastering basic rook endgames

Forlagets egen omtale

Rook endgames are the most frequently recurring endgames and also one of the most exciting areas of chess, with mind bending tactical opportunities and dizzying nuances available. They have unsurprisingly been a big topic in endgame literature, with a heavy focus on the set theoretical positions and their logic and fixed conclusions (see the excellent Theoretical Rook Endgames by GM Sam Shankland, published as a sister volume to this book as the peak example of this).

Conceptual Rook Endgames goes in a different direction. Focused on two dozen major concepts, the book explains the mechanisms of rook endgames in a novel way, by building foundations with simple examples, which can be seen in the most complicated examples as well. Rook endgames will remain rich and surprising, as they are for the greats, but armed with this book, your comprehension of them will skyrocket.

Grandmaster Jacob Aagaard is the most talented chess writer of his generation. He won the British Championship in 2007, but is mostly known for his multi-award winning books and his work with students that have won club, country, state, national, continental and world championships, as well as Olympiad golds (board and overall), the World Cup and Candidates tournament.
