Customer Reviews

Book approaches calculations in an brilliant & old school manner.

This book is for the serious chess player that wants to see tactics and positions indepth and accurately. Author Shankland is a US Chess Champion (2018) & super-grandmaster. He presents the puzzles/positions taken from grandmaster games played 2020-2022 with annotations accompanied by good explanation and clarity of variations with good personality! This book reminds me very much of Bobby Fischer's and Mikail Tal's Books. Highly Recommend!!!!
