Simen Agdestein became a chess grandmaster at the age of eighteen and set his sights on becoming the best in the world. He also excelled at football and was selected for the Norwegian national team nine times. Foreign clubs wanted to sign him as a professional. 'I can't choose between my left and my right arm', he said of the choice between chess and football. Agdestein is eight-times national chess champion in Norway and coached World Champion Magnus Carlsen. Games and Goals is a gripping biography of his unique double talent. The author had access to Agdestein's private letters and diaries and conducted numerous interviews with relatives, friends and Agdestein himself.
