The illustrations were a nice addition and effective because they’re clear and detailed. The truth is, the game does not require high levels of skill.

My son requested I order this book for him using a gift card he received. He is very happy with it and talks about some of the content, although I don't play chess so it's a fairly one sided conversation.

I have a significant collection of chess books dating back to Bobby Fischer’s.I bought this one as a present for my son and stupidly assumed based solely on price that it was the best of the new generation.I am not at all impressed and don’t think that it is worth the price!!Debating whether or not to return it at this time since there is a time constraint regarding timing of the present.

My eldest child wants to learn chess. Unfortunately, my hubby and I are clueless. Well, I’m not totally clueless because I know the moves for each piece but had no idea how to strategize.

Anyway, it’s best to read it with a physical chess on hand for better understanding and so that you can easily apply the moves and strategies discussed in the book.
