Description
"Chess Superminiatures" is a fun chess ebook with over 100 super-short chess games (all under ten moves!), and more than 1500 full-size diagrams. With plenty of carefully-graded interactive puzzles throughout, it is designed for ordinary chess players (grand masters, please look elsewhere!) and juniors who want to improve their chess skills. Suitable for playing on the train, on the sofa, on the beach... on the anywhere!
The games are arranged into eight themed chapters:-
1. Monkeys With Hammers - Attacking games
2. That’s Gotta Hurt - Moves that were overlooked
3. Greed Isn’t Good - What happens to greedy players
4. Tales of the Unpredicted - Bolts from the blue
5. Tangled Webs - When pieces fail to work together
6. Champs vs Chumps - Tales from Chess’s top table
7. Return To Sender - Correspondence players getting unexpected mail
8. Best of the Best - The very best superminiatures I’ve ever seen!
Within each chapter, the puzzles are arranged in ascending order of difficulty, so every reader should quickly find themselves at an appropriately challenging level of difficulty, whatever their playing strength.
Note: compatible with Kindle, Kindle Paperwhite/Touch, and Kindle for PC - currently being tested for compatibility with Kindle for iPhone and Kindle Fire models.
