First Kyu: A novel

First Kyu Cover

A novel written by Dr. Sung-Hwa Hong, describing the life of a Korean student hoping to become a professional Go player, going against the will of his strict father.

As some reviewers also mention, I could not put this book down once I started reading it. It is a very interesting story and keeps you wanting to read on!

You can even read the first few chapters online, through gobase.org:
