Description
Learn the pattern. Find the tactic.
Puzzles by Pattern groups 500 real-game puzzles around 11 tactical ideas: pins, forks, skewers, discovered attacks, deflection, removing the defender, attraction, loose pieces, back-rank mates, double check and zugzwang.
Each chapter begins with seven worked examples to show the idea in action. The puzzles that follow give you the chance to recognise and use the same pattern for yourself, so you can learn the ideas one at a time and start to spot them in your own games.
There are four clear diagrams on each page, with space underneath to write out your line in pencil. Answers come after every 20 puzzles, only a short flip away. Every solution has been checked with Stockfish, a powerful chess engine.
