In the works

Chess puzzle books, on paper

We're making small printed puzzle books. Pocket size, two puzzles a page, and a box under each board for your answer. Bring a pencil.

Two open test copies of a small chess puzzle book on a wooden table. Each page has two chess boards, numbered, with the last move written underneath and a dotted box for the answer. — A test copy, printed at home and folded by hand. The real ones get a proper cover and nicer paper.

What they'll be like

Pocket size. A6, small enough for a jacket pocket or a bag.
Two puzzles a page. Each one shows the last move that was played, then a box for yours.
Answers at the back. Every answer says which page it belongs to, so peeking is easy and spoiling is hard.
One belt per book. The same belts as the free sets, White to Black.
