Synopsis

The Game of Kings is Now at your Fingertips! Join the Casual Chess Revolution Today!

You want to learn the game of Kings, Generals, Conquerors, and Intellectuals

But learning Chess on your own isn’t easy.

Many Chess books for beginners overload you with information about openings, tactics, forks, history, notation, and lot of other things beginners don’t need to know.

That might work for some people. But in this highly anticipated prequel to the Conquer your Friends series, I’m going to SHOW you how you can play the game of Chess AND WIN in a heinously short amount of time.

Chess for Beginners (Yeah, Real Beginners)

Hi, my name is Maxen Tarafa, and I’m a Skill Artist. Most teachers struggle to show beginners how to play Chess because they forget what it’s like to start from the beginning. I specialize in working with beginners and casual players, and now I’ve broken down the specific needs of the (absolute) beginner.

You see, I believe Chess belongs to regular people who enjoy playing Chess with their friends or at home, not in the hands of “experts” who use incomprehensible terminology and notation.

After working with several beginners, I realized their greatest struggle is not just remembering how the pieces move, but seeing the board beyond where the pieces physically sit. I’m going to show you how to play Chess using step-by-step images with arrows and interactive exercises, and I'm going show you how to start winning in a heinously short amount of time.

Learn or Teach - Great for Adults, Kids, and Teens

Who is this book for? Perhaps, you’ve never played Chess but you’ve always wanted to learn.

Or maybe, you’ve already learned how to move the pieces, but you need an easy, straight-forward refresher.

Or perhaps, it’s time to show your son or younger brother how to play Chess and you want to review the basics, so you can make sure you nail the questions beginners ask most.

Whether you’re brand new to Chess or you just want to pass the tradition down, this book is for you.

In this book, you learn how to:

Quickly and confidently move each piece from Pawn to King

Set up the board from memory quickly and correctly every...single...time

Use my step-by-step method for commanding the puzzling Knight

Harness the power of your mind to visualize the board and gain an edge over your opponent

Learn the little-known reason why most beginners lose and how to use it to your advantage

Employ a three-question checklist to ensure you don’t lose your pieces for no good reason

Blow your opponent’s mind! Predict your opponent’s strategy three moves ahead and stop their plan before they’ve even tried it

I’ve taught beginner Chess players from age 5 to age 35 and beyond, anyone can learn and now’s your chance to finally learn the ancient game of Kings and Conquerors!

Review

Fans love my Chess books! See my favorite quotes from REAL readers and chess beginners like you:

PERFECT! [...] Well written. The author [...] clearly knows chess yet somehow is able to remember what it's like to be a novice.
-M. Peers, ReaderChess: How to Play Chess for (Absolute) Beginners
I bought this for a fourteen-year-old beginner. He read it quickly and was teaching others how to play.
-Alljammedup, ReaderChess: How to Play Chess for (Absolute) Beginners

I'M NOT A CHESS HUSTLER I SWEAR!!!
Let me put it to you this way. NOW all of the people who used to beat me at Chess have LEFT THE CHESS CLUB. Unless you want to be like the best chess player all of a sudden and freak everybody out [...] you may want to reconsider this.
