Hi, does anyone know any good chinese life and death and tesuji books? My friend is in China and said that he could get me some while he's there. I have the Lee Changho life and death and tesuji and Segoe Kensaku tesuji books already.

Thank you both! I am definitely planning on picking up that book.

Does anyone know anything about any of these series? I just searched on taobao for some books, but I can't really tell if they're my level or not. I like series of books best because they typically start from easy and get gradually harder as you progress. Books at (or slightly above) the level of the segoe and lee changho books would be ideal.

I'll do my best, but hopefully Tchan will give you much better explanation:)

From the top:
-1st and 7th set are the same Dictionaries series, books on the top are the newest edition.
-2nd set, Dictionaries under Nie Weiping supervision
-3rd & 4th - set of 21 children books, covering Life and Death, Tesuji, Endgame, Joseki and Fuseki. You probably need '1 kyu- shodan' and 'shodan to 3rd dan' books from this series (close to 800 problems in LD, Endgame and Tesuji books)
- 5th: looks like Tesuji for 10 kyu to 1kyu 初级篇, look for another two books, similar cover 中级篇 1 kyu-3 dan
https://goo.gl/J0gDDr
- 6th, collection of short Go games
- 7th: explained above
- 8th: Japanese small dictionaries series, translated to Chinese
- 9th, One month (Tesuji, Life and Death, ...) seven books series

These books are good too:

- there is a new edition (3rd, I believe, so cover is different).
http://senseis.xmp.net/?WeiqiLifeAndDeathDrills

-Life and Death https://goo.gl/uediot (there are 7 books in this series besides LD: Tesuji, Endgame, Sabaki, Reduction and Invasion, Fuseki and the Usage of Joseki , Joseki) -There is a review of Tesuji books somewhere on this site.

- Step by Step 1000 problems, 3 books series
http://senseis.xmp.net/?WeiqiStepByStep ... lemsSeries

- Rapid Drill 800 Problems
http://senseis.xmp.net/?WeiqiRapidDrill800Problems

-There are two series of Korean dictionaries translated into Chinese

and much more, I will try to add more 'recommended' books later

BTW, you mentioned Segoe Kensaku and Go Seigen Tesuji Dictionary. On taobao you can find Segoe Kensaku Life and Death Dictionary, older Chinese book (which has answers, not like the Japanese original), and a new , 'no publisher':) edition.

Hope this helps

I ended up ordering Weiqi Life and Death Drills (http://senseis.xmp.net/?WeiqiLifeAndDeathDrills) and Weiqi Life and Death 1000 Problems (http://senseis.xmp.net/?WeiqiLifeAndDeath1000Problems). I will most likely order a bunch more in the future :)

One weird thing is that this additional book shown in the picture below came with my Weiqi Life and Death Drills. Does anyone know what this book is? It appears to be Jack Ma from Alibaba on the cover..
