Title: A very disappointing title from Thinkers Press. Review: I bought this book primarily because I have another Thinker's Press title "The Search For Chess Perfection" and it is one of my favorite chess books. Action Chess is a total disapointment however. The openings it talks about are primarily for black, though it is touted as a complete opening system. The openings themselves are not mainstream and based on old, outdated, flawed logic. The back of the book even admits as much! Don't waste your money. The ultimate "opening system" book has yet to be written. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: Original Plot Overcome By Minutia Review: I am over halfway through this book. I bought it originally thinking the plot sounded attractive (finding a murdered man on a drifting yacht). I still think it sounds attractive, however, after over 50% of the book I'm no closer to finding out a darn thing. I do know a bunch about the Bahamas West End, historical trivia and the examination of undersea sponges. But that's not why I bought it.Maybe the remainder of the book will pick up, but I'm very close to bagging the whole thing for complete lack of interest. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: Quality Control Issue Review: I think this is a good book, but I'm not sure entirely. As I was looking through the book, I got to page 80 and the next page was page 66 AGAIN. Also, the table of contents said there were 88 pages in the book, but mine didn't have 88 pages, at least not 88 pages numbered consecutively. I think Quality Control was on lunch break when this book was assembled. Is the review positive or negative?
(A).
