hmm, I am planning to read it next (Dvoresky's Endgame Manual), and you are giving me doubts...
I had an unsuccesfull attempt to read "Endgame Analysis" by the same author but it was so dry and heavy as I gave it up(more like a book for already titled players in my opinion, not for less than master like myself)...I hope this manual is not same difficult...
FWIW, I think Silman is a terrible writer, but if his end game book is light it might be a good place to start.
But, if you want to keep getting better, sooner or later you have to read and re-read a good end game manual and it will take forever.
