Two New Books – Excerpts
On October 18th we will publish two superb new books: Theoretical Rook Endgames by GM Sam Shankland, and Conceptual Rook Endgames by GM Jacob Aagaard.
The excerpt of Theoretical Rook Endgames is here. And the excerpt of Conceptual Rook Endgames is here.
As ever, I am biased, but these books are brilliant. They are sister volumes, so they deserve to be published together. Rook endgames have always been my favourite part of chess, so it was always lucky for me that rook endgames are also the type of endgame that is most frequently reached.

Oh no – I need to hurry up and finish Endgame Labyrinths first. 🙁
Are there exercises? or are readers expected to grind their way through 800+ pages. Don’t worry I plan to buy both!
Conceptual Rook Endgames looks really nice, will definitely get that one. For other very likely got the information elsewhere, but probably get anyway.
This may be an odd request, but could you delay publication of those books for about half a year? I promised my wife not to make further chess-related purchases at least for a little while, but you’re really putting me to a test here.
@Griot
Just a suggestion, but tell her you’d like to take up golf. She’ll likely encourage you to buy more chess books instead.
So will they be published a week earlier than book release day? I will go for forward chess i guess.
@Hilmi
That’s the pattern…
Both of them are a joy to study !
Could you please announce on what platform these books will be published.
