Chess Fiction

Chess has played a part in a variety of fictional stories, sometimes small, sometimes great.  Chessville has a small but (hopefully) growing collection of fiction that involves chess rather more then less.  Our modest index is offered below.  You can also find reviews of chess sites dedicated to fictional stories included in our site review index.
 

The Works of Rick Kennedy

Perry the PawnPusher Series

Sherlock Holmes Series

The Thompson Stories
by Ron Canter
 

Paul D. Fawcett, aka The Hawk

The Hawk on The Hawk:  "My stories are based 'loosely' on my own experiences & have a ring of truth to the events I wrote about.  The characters are in fact real people but their names have been changed to protect the innocent.  The real people are quite aware they are in my stories & they find it most entertaining that they have been chosen...  I am 58, married (Marty), a blue collar worker, (lift truck operator).  I live in Economy, Indiana.  USA!  A small Midwestern village of about 150 people.  Economy, the known center of the universe, is a great place to live.  Hawk, (my pen name & chess handle) came about in my chess games with Mr. Sugden & Mr. Canter.  Hawk, the very name strikes fear into the hearts of chess players the world over with my swooping, attacking style!!!"
