Inside the covers of this little book lie the secrets of Britain’s first Scrabble World Champion and World Scrabble Championship 2016 runner-up Mark Nyman.
Updated based on the revised wordlist officially adopted by WESPA from 1st September 2015.
Scrabble is played by millions but mastered by very few and unless you’re a Scrabble player who likes to lose, this book is a must. In it Mark Nyman spells out the most useful two letter words, what to do when you have a case of irritable vowel syndrome, strategies for how to get off to a flying start and lists our language’s strangest and most unbelievably useful words. Between these golden tips come anecdotes and words of wisdom from a lifetime at the top.
Beautifully produced, Collins Little Book of Scrabble™ Secrets is a treasure in itself and makes a perfect gift. Be careful who you give it to though; you might find yourself scrabbling around in their dust when next you play!
“A little gem.”
Gyles Brandreth
"Scrabble, forage and fight for a copy. This is a wonderful, wonderful companion for all who get a kick from the manipulation of letters or words."
Stephen Fry
“Mark Nyman is among the best tournament SCRABBLE players in history. He was one of just a handful of prodigies in the 40-year history of international competition, winning tournaments while just a teenager. His skills and approach to the game have also distinguished him as a respected teacher and promoter of the game.”
John D. Williams Jr. Executive Director, National SCRABBLE Association 1987-2014
“Mark Nyman's Scrabble Secrets packs a ton of information in a compact space. It's an effective way to improve one's game in the shortest amount of time. Entertaining too!”
Joel Wapnick, 1999 World Scrabble Championship Winner
