I own every single one of his books and have enjoyed each and everyone so when I found out this book was coming out I immediatly preworded back in march and finally just got it. Looks like a very well written book, covers tons of mating patterns, which is nice because the only book I know of thats good for that is the Art of Checkmate, and its excellent, but in descriptive notation. Also includes in depth coverage of the classic bishop sacrifice/greek gift, the clumsy rook, blunders and boomerangs. Looks solid, I'll read it after finals and give a review.
