Reviews
" Insightful& Brady is uniquely qualified to write this&The book should appeal to a broad audience, from hard-core chess fans to casual players to those who are simply interested in what is a compelling personal story." - Booklist " Engrossing& The Mozart of the chessboard is inseparable from the monster of paranoid egotism in this fascinating biography& Brady gives us a tragic narrative of a life that became a chess game." - Publishers Weekly (Pick of the Week/Starred Review)   "The teenage prodigy, the eccentric champion, the irascible anti-Semite, the genius, the pathetic paranoid-these and other Bobby Fischers strut and fret their hour upon celebrity's stage&. Informed, thorough, sympathetic and surpassingly sad." - Kirkus Reviews   " ENDGAME is rich in detail and insight . It is sympathetic and human, but not at all naive. I admire Brady's resolve, and I consider this book essential reading in the effort to understand Bobby Fischer and his place in our world." -David Shenk, author of THE GENIUS IN ALL OF US and THE IMMORTAL GAME   "The definitive portrait of the greatest-and most disturbed-chess genius of all time." -Paul Hoffman, author of THE MAN WHO LOVED ONLY NUMBERS and KING'S GAMBIT   "Bobby Fischer began life as a lonely prodigy and ended it as a hate-spewing enigma, and in between became America's greatest chess player, a man renowned both for his unmatched brilliance and social clumsiness. In ENDGAME, Frank Brady masterfully chronicles the full breadth of Fischer's life, producing a narrative driven by staggering detail and profound insight into the psyche of a troubled genius ." -Wayne Coffey, New York Times bestselling author of THE BOYS OF WINTER   "You don't have to know the game of chess to be mesmerized by the dizzying and ultimately dark journey of the world's most heralded player.   Frank Brady has researched and detailed Bobby Fischer's every move-on and off the chessboard-for an incisive and objective account of a man whose genius was matched by his eccentricities.  This is a riveting look at a tarnished American icon." -Pat H. Broeske, New York Times bestselling co-author of HOWARD HUGHES: THE UNTOLD STORY   "I've wondered about the weird and fascinating life of Bobby Fischer since I was a teen-aged New York Times copyboy sent out to the lobby to keep Fischer's mother from pestering editors and reporters. Finally, after 50 years, I've finally gotten the weird and fascinating biography I've been waiting for. Bravo, Brady." -Robert Lipsyte, author of AN ACCIDENTAL SPORTSWRITER     "A definitive and finely detailed chronicle of one of the most fascinating and eccentric Americans of the 20th century, written by one of the few men with the expertise, knowledge and writing ability to pull it off in a manner deserving of the subject." -Michael Weinreb, author of THE KINGS OF NEW YORK   "Fischer is America's greatest antihero. This fascinating biography is filled with hope, Cold War intrigue, the fulfillment of genius, and an explosive fall from grace that is both deeply moving and, ultimately, profoundly sad." -Jeremy Silman, author of THE AMATEUR'S MIND   "I have been following Bobby Fischer my whole life, but I learned something new on nearly every page of this wonderful book. Frank Brady is the perfect biographer for Bobby Fischer, and ENDGAME tells the full and fair story of Fischer's astonishing rise and heartbreaking fall.", "Rich in detail and insight.Endgameis sympathetic and human, but not at all naive.
