Now, I’ve dropped hints on my channel for a few weeks now. My new book, 50+2 Chess Quick Wins! Tactical ideas for exciting chess for beginner players, has just been released! This book is for beginner to intermediate level chess players wanting to have fun and learn tactical ideas and patterns that underlie quick wins. It’s available NOW in paperback, and a hardcover deluxe version on Amazon!
This book includes analysis and annotations of the first 50 entries in the Chess Noob Quick Wins series on the Adventures of a Chess Noob channel, along with two bonus games. From these games, I explain and detail a dozen tactical ideas and themes that are common in a variety of quick wins.
In the US, the paperback is $13.99 USD. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CJ3VVW9M

The deluxe version costs a bit more, but is in a lovely laminate hardcover, with a very high quality colour print on higher weight paper. The deluxe version also includes an extra section at the end on Chess Noob Art: Of Chess and Cats!
Because of some restrictions to Amazon’s print distribution in the Australian market, there is a separate Australian version. This is the same as the deluxe version in terms of content and print and paper quality, but in paperback.
