Book Description
Yuri Averbakh (1922) is a distinguished Russian chess grandmaster who has enjoyed a long and varied career. He has been a top player, a journalist, an editor, an arbiter, a trainer and a long-time member of the board of the Soviet chess federation. Averbakh won the USSR championship in 1954 ahead of players like Kortchnoi, Petrosian and Geller and was a leading Soviet grandmaster for two decades. In this personal memoir he looks back on his days as an active player on the centre stage of chess, but also on his experiences as a quintessential insider when chess was considered a vital ingredient of life in the Soviet Union. Averbakh observes the world of chess from the moment he walked into the Moscow Chess Club as a 13-year old boy and describes his personal successes, his secret training matches with world champion Botvinnik, the mechanisms and behind-the-scenes dealings in the Soviet Union, including his involvement in the famous matches between Karpov and Kasparov. A unique, revealing and well-told story, essential reading for everybody interested in the history of chess and the Soviet Union.

The Black Age - Book 1
Author: Logan Beadnell-Davies
Publisher: Logan Beadnell-Davies
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
The G.E.G was created to reverse the effects of global warming. But in an error of science, it killed nearly every human older than eighteen years old. However, some adults survived. Those who did were brutally mutated. Extra limbs. Freakish size. Acidic gas secretion - you name it. Now they're hunting their children. Murdering them and leaving them dead in the streets. The teens of Great Britain must hold out until the G.E.G dissipates and takes the creatures with it, or never live to see sunlight again. The hours stack up, and desperation sets in. It quickly becomes apparent that the threat of mutants pales in comparison to the real danger; people. Until you have seen your friends die, you don't know true horror. The first entry in The Black Series.

The Best Short Stories of J. G. Ballard
Author: J. G. Ballard
Publisher: Holt Paperbacks
ISBN: 146685667X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
First published in 1978, this collection of nineteen of J. G. Ballard's best short stories is as timely and informed as ever. This collection includes “The Garden of Time,” the inspiration for the 2024 Met Gala–fashion’s biggest night. His tales of the human psyche and its relationship to nature and technology, as viewed through a strong microscope, were eerily prescient and now provide greater perspective on our computer-dominated culture. Ballard's voice and vision have long served as a font of inspiration for today's cyber-punks, the authors and futurists who brought the information age into the mainstream.
