Highly anticipated follow-up to the winner of the 2019 ABTA (American Bridge Teachers Association) Book of the Year Award! The latest installment of the Insights on Bridge series contains hundreds more carefully crafted mini-lessons designed to turn aspiring players into good players. The material in this book is devoted to situations and problems you will see at the table but are hard to find in books.Note From Mike Lawrence: AFTER WRITING OVER 25 books on bridge that discuss certain aspects of play, defense, system, or general bidding, I've begun a series of books aimed at turning aspiring players into good players. Note I don't say expert players. That will be the next step. Bridge isn't a game where you can immerse yourself for six months and become a good player. There's just too much to learn. You have to start somewhere and then move in the right direction. Typically, when you start playing in a club, you feel lost. After you get your feet on the ground, you still recognize that you aren't moving very fast. Going forward requires that you get good guidance. Many players at your club will offer advice. Much of that advice, unfortunately, isn't very good.This series of books includes hundreds of mini-lessons, complete with insights and advice you can count on. The material is devoted to situations and problems you will see at the table but not in other books. This book (#2 in a series) won't make you an expert. But these books will start you on the path to being a good player and a good partner.Enjoy the trip.Mike Lawrence
Twenty years ago, Mike Lawrence published a series of short booklets entitled Topics on Bridge, offering tips on various aspects of cardplay and bidding for intermediate players.

This books contains articles adapted into book form that have been designed for all levels of player: by starting with the basics on the topic and gradually filling in details up to expert level, I hope to frame the issues in a way all can understand and also raise issues for a partnership to discuss. The techniques in this book are sustainable and can be incorporated into any bidding system. Learn from the best and see instant improvement in your results at the bridge table.
Endplays are an aspect of bridge declarer play that many intermediate players think are beyond them. Yet while they can be extremely complex, the basic principles are not. Using a straightforward, conversational style with recaps and quizzes, this book will make endplays understandable to many readers who have been afraid to attempt to learn them.
How many times have you found yourself defending and wriggling with anguish at having to discard apparently certain winners? Hugh Kelsey's target here is to help you avoid such pain - and other agonies that a competent declarer may inflict. Sound defence is the hallmark of the accomplished bridge player and consistent performance, at any game, is only achieved through repeated practice. By helping you to develop insights into the hidden possibilities in the lie and play of the cards, this book will make you a sought-after partner - and a respected (and feared!) opponent.
Third and final volume in the series by one of the best bridge writers in the world, which offers expert tips for bridge players, originally published in limited-circulation pamphlets twenty years ago. The topics here include: defence, including opening leads, signalling and third hand play, declarer play including endplays, simple squeezes, loser on loser plays, and timing. There is also a general discussion of the mistakes we all make in cardplay but need to avoid. This is the third volume in a three-volume series, 'Mike Lawrence Bridge Tips', based on bridge tips for intermediate players first published twenty years ago.
Return to New York Times bestselling author Anne Bishop’s Ephemera, a world of strange and magical landscapes connected only by bridges—bridges that may transport you where you truly belong, rather than where you wish to go. When wizards threaten Glorianna Belladonna and her work to keep Ephemera balanced, her brother, Lee, sacrifices himself in order to save her—and ends up an Asylum inmate in the city of Vision, far away from all he knows. But a darkness is spreading through Vision, perplexing the Shamans who protect it—and Lee is the only one who can shed any light on its mysteries... Includes the Ephemera novella “The Voice”
One exceptional boy journeys into the ashes of society to find the cure for a devastating plague in this riveting post-apocalyptic standalone set in the same world as the USA Today-bestselling The Girl With All the Gifts.

To where the monsters lived. "Strange and surprising and humane" (Lauren Beukes), The Boy on the Bridge is a gripping, powerful story that will make you question what it means to be human.
