My latest book, “Tiger’s chaos theory”, was published in 2024, but it took some time for the reviews to come in. Matthew Sadler, in “New in Chess Magazine“, wrote this review, and Carsten Hansen, in “American Chess Magazine“, wrote:

“This year has already provided us with numerous excellent books, but few are as creative in style and presentation as this one, as enjoyable and rewarding to read as this one, or as unique in every sense of the word. This book is a modern classic, and I urge anyone who enjoys chess to read it. You may understand some of it, you may learn something from the examples – and even from the entirely unnecessary puzzle section – but you will enjoy all of it. When I put it down, I wondered: will I ever be able to write a book like this one day? The answer for me, sadly, is probably no – but fortunately, we have someone like Tiger to do just that, and for that, I feel joy. Check it out.” (quoted from the New In Chess homepage)

…and as an effect it seems that others have also noticed the book:

and (at 18.38):

I have more than one writing project running simultaneously now, and there have been days when I feel like the era of books is coming to the end days, and that I am a dinosaur on the verge of extinction. These reviews gave me back some of my purpose. So, thx guys.
