5.0 out of 5 stars The best book on go in English., May 26, 1999
By 
This review is from: Invincible, The Games of Shusaku (Game Collections) (Paperback)
Without a doubt the best book on go in the English language for any player above rank beginner. A compendium of masterpieces by a player whom many feel was the greatest of all time. Shusaku's games contain literally thousands of lessons on every phase and aspect of the game, with each lesson fixed in perfect context - a real game. His characteristic clarity makes playing good go seem much like other Truths, simple, pure and quite easy once illusion falls away. One needs to study no other go book to become strong, and certainly studying no other go book would be as much fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must-Have Book For Any Serious Go Player, September 16, 2003
By 
This review is from: Invincible, The Games of Shusaku (Game Collections) (Paperback)
I am playing Go a little over a year now, and I must admit that Shusaku is way beyond my level of thinking. However, going over his games (and not spending so much time on the alternatives in the commentaries) has helped me tremendously. Even though I am not in the above 10 kyu rank, I am very thankful for Shusaku helping me to jump from the lowest rank to 15kyu - and because of my profession, I do not play that often. I have studied his games repeatedly and will continue to do so, because there is always something new that I didn't get the last time reviewed the games. I feel gratified that if I am still just a novice and have profited from his games and broadened my thinking - I look forward to the greener fields I will receive from this book as I grow more in the knowledge of the game. This book is just plain THE book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Book:incredible. Price on amazon=ridiculous!!!, February 23, 2009
This review is from: Invincible, The Games of Shusaku (Game Collections) (Paperback)
FYI all who want this, go google this book, or go to one of the major suppliers, i.e kiseido or samarkand(both sold for under 50$ new,) but $80-100+ is ridiculous. I advise Honinbo Shusaku - Complete Game Collection for a companion for higher ranked players, every game(471 of shusaku's finest,) with translations. This book is amazing, but so much money on amazon.
