The boxset collects Daniel Naroditsky’s three acclaimed hardcover works on positional chess and endgames in a lasting tribute to his remarkable chess legacy.

Mastering Positional Chess

Every aspiring chess player wants to improve their positional understanding. In this ambitious work, GM Daniel Naroditsky explains clear positional themes in complex settings. Drawing on his own games, those of US colleagues, and top-level grandmasters, the prodigious author navigates chess strategy with the liveliness and clarity he later became famous for.

Mastering Positional Chess was first published when Naroditsky was just 14. This 288-page edition has been significantly updated.

Mastering Complex Endgames

Mastering Practical Endgames

Endgame mastery separates great players from the good. First-rate endgame play requires a mix of calculation, pattern recognition, abstract themes, theoretical knowledge and resilience few have mastered. In this rich collection of seventy mini-lessons, written over six years, acclaimed author GM Daniel Naroditsky guides you to every corner of the endgame world in the engaging, humorous, and always instructive style that made him famous.

The articles in this 440-page book were originally published in Chess Life Magazine and on chess.com. They have been checked carefully and updated where necessary. Mastering Practical Endgames is a resource for chess improvement of the highest order.
