For ages 9-12. Jules has been stuck in the Commons all of her deprived life. Now comes her fourteenth birthday and a chance to test for Solomon's University of Wizardry. She can finally quit pretending to have only five senses. Through her seventh, she can channel the Seven Sources and cast magic. She has kept this secret hidden better than her fear of heights or blistering temper. The seventh son of a mighty Sylverr dragon, Lancelor was expected to be a powerful windsinger. Instead, at the size of an eagle, Lance is a lazy and accident-prone runt. When his magic is discovered to be chaotic magick, he escapes Castle Yonder barely ahead of the royal guard. Dragon Pawns is the first in the Jules and the Runt Dragon trilogy, a fun and thought-provoking blend of humor, mysteries and thrills.

The Dragon Sicilian is the perfect choice for club players searching for chaotic and imbalanced positions. This opening manual shows how Black can turn up the heat against 1.e4, and enjoy dynamic winning chances game after game. Top-10 player Anish Giri is the best tutor to bring this complicated opening across to 'everyday' club players. Anish serves up his super-GM lines and clearly explains the ideas and strategies behind the moves. So when game time comes, you know exactly which moves to play, at what moment, and how to deliver the knockout blow. Make no mistake: This repertoire's "take-no-prisoners"-strategy means you will sometimes reach razor-sharp positions, where both sides must play 'only moves'. But that's why you'll love having Anish Giri as your opening coach. Giri delivers just the right mix of cutting-edge analysis and practical guidance for players of all levels with his trademark witty and down-to-earth teaching style. The Dragon Sicilian also covers all other major systems Black could face, including what to play against Anti-Sicilians such as the Rossolimo, the 2.c3 Alapin, and the Grand-Prix Attack.

Every chess player needs to know how to handle his pawns. Pawns form the 'playing fields' of chess games, a semi-permanent 'structure' that can determine whether a player wins or loses. This comprehensive guide to pawn structure teaches the reader where pieces are best placed, which pawns should be advanced further or exchanged, and why certain structures are good and others disastrous. This invaluable book is a major update of this chess-world classic, first published in 1975 and unavailable for several years.
