    Hello,

     

    I am looking for some good chess books for openings/middlegame/endgame.

    I currently have traps and zaps and endgame by Bruce Pandolfini, but have exhausted them both and am looking for more.

    I recently found Chess Opening Repetoire for Black: Explained, how good is it?

    Also, Are there any good Reti or Queens Gambit books? Please Help i need answer by today(coupons on borders.com expires)

    dont worry about advanced opening books such as "for black, explained" (although I own it and its a solid book)

    buy instead "tips for young players" its an awesome book that works on all 3 of what you wanted, plus more.

     

    a lot of it depends on skill level though.. what level do you think youre at on here or OTB? the zaps and traps book might be one of the easiest ever created so its hard to gauge off that
