Reviews

[Goetz Holic · Rating 3 out of 5]

A nice book with many cool examples!

The author tries to explain his view on how tactical opportunities arise in chess games. I must admit, I am not sure I fully grasped the whole concept. I felt at certain points his verbal explanations could have been clearer => 3 stars for me.
