The subject of Netflix's most watched limited series to date, Walter Tevis' The Queen's Gambit is a thrilling novel about one young woman’s journey through the worlds of chess and drug addiction . . . 

​Exciting, fast-paced, and elegantly written, The Queen’s Gambit is a gripping thriller masquerading as a chess novel that is sure to keep readers on the edge of their seats.

"Tevis traps his readers in the breathless drama of the moment and makes them feel the same intense involvement his characters feel." -- Cleveland Plain Dealer
