Pages : 107
Book Description
Graham, a mysterious, enchanted knight, is skilled at finding lost things. His latest assignment is to find a woman and her cookbook—if he wants to win his mother's freedom. Devon did not intend to visit medieval times. She simply opened her grandmother's cookbook. Now she desperately wants to get back to her own time and doesn't know how. But she is still a woman who will stand up to the bully in the kitchens to protect the weak and helpless. When Graham falls in love with this courageous, cheerful woman from the future, he knows he must find another way to free his mother. Turning Devon over to an uncertain fate makes as much sense as gingerbread cookies without the ginger. Together they devise a dangerous plan, knowing failure means they will never see each other again.

A Chess Opening Repertoire for Blitz & Rapid
Author: Evgeny Sveshnikov
Publisher: New In Chess
ISBN: 9056916041
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 459
Book Description
Playing blitz is one of the great joys in every chess player’s life. In modern times, faster time controls have become more important than ever. Every day, innumerable numbers of rated blitz and rapid games are being played in online and over-the-board competitions and championships. In blitz, even more than in ‘classical chess’, it is important to make the right decisions quickly and almost instinctively. That is why world-famous opening expert Grandmaster Evgeny Sveshnikov and his son, International Master Vladimir Sveshnikov, have created a chess opening repertoire for club players that is forcing, both narrow and deep, and aggressive. The aim is to be in control as much as possible. You want to be the one who decides which opening is going to be played, you want to dictate the technical and strategic choices. And you want to keep the pressure, increasing your opponent’s chances to stumble. In designing their repertoire, father and son Sveshnikov have made a crucial choice: they do not want you to end up in positions where finding the theoretically best move is all-important, but in positions where it is relatively easy to keep finding the moves with the greatest practical effect and use. If you play the lines the Sveshnikovs have selected, your results will improve. You may even end up playing their variations in ‘slow chess’ as well.

The Knights at the Round Table is a collection of humorous tales and fabulous, easy-to-prepare recipes guaranteed to fill your homes with love, laughter, and satisfied appetites. The time tested recipes and fresh new ones bring: the warmth of family traditions; the personal touch of shared recipes from friends; and delightful new dishes created from the author’s travels and dining experiences.

Because of changing lifestyles and the eating habits of health-conscious friends, the author has included some vegan and vegetarian dishes and pointed out ways you can change regular recipes to meatless fare.

The Knights at the Round Table serves up a plentiful helping of appetizers, soups, bread, salads, light dishes, entrées, sides, and a generous mixture of incredible desserts to satisfy both those needs. It offers something for everyone to enjoy!
