Beginner Chess Ending Book for Kindle

All,

I am having trouble finding a good chess ending book and would like some help.

In particular:

1)  Silman's and Pandolfini's books are both not available on Kindle.

2)  Alburt's and Seirawan's books are both part of larger courses, and I think leave out some basics because it's covered earlier in the course.

Most other books seem to be encyclopedias, or specialized, or not for beginners.

So...I am wondering if anyone has any ideas that an help me here?

The idea would be comprehensive for the under 1800 player.  Or, in another way of looking at it, everything De La Villa didn't put in his book because it's too basic and of course everyone already knows it.

Thanks,

Dodge

Karsten Müller - Chess endgames for Kids covers all the basic stuff (and a little beyond). But I don't know if it's available for kindle. If it is, that might be good choice for you

@OP ignore this suggestion, i got to know that this book doesn't have simple endgames and is not directed towards beginners

thanks everybody for the inputs.  the mueller book does look about right.  also there is the old averbakh "essential endings" book on kindle which gets good comments from the old russian school crowd.

 

so i will likely get one of those and then just need to do the work.
