Thinkers Publishing The Richter-Rauzer Reborn - The Kozul Variation:
Book SynopsisThe Richter-Rauzer is one of the most complex and rich battlegrounds in the Open Sicilian. This book is the distillation of the authors' decades-long experience in this variation, offering a practical approach based on understanding and knowledge of typical ideas. Do you wish to explore something double-edged and sharp, this book will leave you confident and fully armed to play for a win. For this second revised edition, Grandmasters Kozul and Jankovic teamed up to present you a way to even throw your most experienced opponent off balance!Trade ReviewAn incredible tour de force of an opening book that will take some beating for depth and detail. Probably invaluable to the devotees of the open sicilian and certainly not for the feint hearted. Almost certainly this audience for this book will consist of 2000+ Elo rated players who have the motivation to investigate the fine detail and ideas of this sharper line. Clearly we have not checked the analysis (and why we would do that anyway?) but if you play open sicilian with either colour and you want to everything there is to know about the Richter Rauzer then this book is for you. John Upham, British Chess News, May 2020.Richter Rauzer Reborn by Kozul and Jankovic: An absolutely mind-bending book which covers what can be considered as one of the most misunderstood variations of the Sicilian defense. For years the reputation of the black side of the Richter Rauzer, specifically Kozul’s namesake variation was regarded as suspicious by opening theory and yet the two authors among other grandmasters remained faithful to it. With the advent of modern computing technology this variation was vindicated as computers realized all is not gloom for black, leading to a new revival of the classical sicilian. Zdenko Kozul is a leading authority on this line so what he says must be considered to be gospel. NM Gopal Menon JUNE 2020

Victionary HANDSTYLE LETTERING: 20th Anniversary Boxset
Book SynopsisFor some time in the distant past, hand-lettering used to be a highly-regarded skill to master and was ubiquitous via publications and public signages. Although society relies heavily on keyboards and screens for communication today, a growing number of creative practitioners have been busy reviving the seemingly-lost art in recent years, in a bid to return the sincerity and warmth of the human touch to our predominantly digital lives. Brimming with character, hand-lettering serves as the bridge between old-school calligraphy and modern typography to bring nuance back into an age of uniformity. Rereleased in conjunction with Victionary’s 20th anniversary, the 2021 boxset edition of ‘Handstyle Lettering’ comes with a beginner-friendly calligraphy pen-and-nib set crafted by renowned British companies Manuscript and D. Leonardt & Co. which––coupled with new projects, interviews, and an expanded step-by-step guide––serves to help aspiring creatives kickstart their hand-lettering journey.
