Engulfed in the tale of fourteen year old Vasu are profound truths of life. Vasu is spotted by a chess prodigy, who trains him to be a world champion. This is fiction but through Vasu’s life, you can peep into your own, growing as an individual. A better one at that.In this book, Swamiji, has revealed how you can craft yourself into being successful. What it takes, the struggles and the challenges behind it. The sacrifices of the near and dear ones, above all the turmoil one has to go through to shine with brilliance.Profound yet subtle messages have been woven throughout the book. Swamiji has covered everything here. Morals, Pursuit of Passion, Life, Relationships, Motivation and much more.I personally feel that it should be made compulsory or part of the school curriculum. Every ought to read it.For all the devotees of Swamiji (the author), this will give you a glimpse into the sacrifices a master makes for his students. You can well imagine the extent of sacrifices made by Swamiji for all those who seek shelter under his umbrella of love and compassion. I personally feel there is a message for all those who look up to Swamiji as their Guru. Read the end with a strong heart.Do yourself a favor, Read IT. May be gift it to someone who is pursuing a passion.We will run out of words to express the magnificence of Swamiji's work but Swamiji never stops amazing us.Thank You Swamiji, for gracing our lives and writing such beautiful books which people would enjoy for many many years. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wisdom of life, in a thrilling and most entertaining fashion *by V***A on Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2017* Amazing read. It has everything to captivate you till the end. Thrill, romance, laughter, excitement and above all the priceless words of practical wisdom which would make the narrator qualify for world championship and compete against the mighty Andrei Kulikov – a mysterious automaton who is naturally wired to just play for chess to win. Tears and smiles would come naturally while you move through the pages (in no time!)The book appears out to be a real-life story and Vasu seems like a living person writing his memoir. His trials and tribulation, cries and frustration, constant self-doubt, success and failures are seemed very real to which we can relate. He’s not your super-human individual found often in science fiction who’s bound to win in any circumstances. Rather, he loses and bruises during crucial moments. Failure goes hand in hand but what stands out is that he keeps pursuing and that’s one of the key messages IMO of the book. Set one goal and Keep pursuing it till the goal and you become one.Vasu eventually loses and wins at the same time – how? Find out yourself. The climax will leave you with tears and joy and – you’d feel proud of and sad for Vasu simultaneously.Make sure your tummy is full before you start reading the book as you'd find it hard to put down in the middle. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sometimes that's what makes all the difference - the one who's by your side! *by P***M on Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2017* Another gem by Om Swami, offering many invaluable life lessons in most interesting and fun ways, making you all nostalgic and warm inside. One of a few reads where I literally had multiple LOL movements. :)Based on a teenage boy's life changing story, his zeal for Chess and his relationship with his master, the reader would get to learn most, if not all aspects of spirituality and self-improvement in a nutshell. It offers insights on care, appreciation, intimidation, dedication, expression, forgiveness, acceptance, respect, mistakes, responsibilities, thoughts and conduct, nature’s law, reflection, and above all, Love and Self-Sacrifice!!Must read for all. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/147397799-the-last-gambit](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/147397799-the-last-gambit) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
