"This is a KICK ASS BOOK that everyone should own from unrated players to Chess Masters.
It is especially extraordinary because there are no words, only pictures, lots of fun looking at the combinations because it's very visual, and you can look at it at your own pace.
Ah, memories. Let's just say you haven't lived until you've beaten a chess master and then had your ass kicked by a 3rd grader. I'll always remember her last words before she killed me, "Wait Dad, I'm almost done." grr."
"This book is a must have for any player trying to increase his level of play. Though basically it's 1/4 mate in one puzzles, 2/4 mate in two puzzles, and 1/4 combination it is still a great book (many of the books that are mainly exercises, have positional puzzles, defense puzzles, forks/skewers/discover puzzles, and piece value/trade puzzles). I have not completely finished all of the puzzles within, but I have done all of the mate in ones, all of the mate in twos, but only about 1/4 of the combinations. Im still working at it. Again this is a must have weapon in your chess arsenal."
"The initial copy was like 14"x 17" x 5", quite the coffee table-doorstop-paperweight-anvil. The latest one is a much more manageable roughly 6x10x4. Read should be read as -partially solved."
