This Tactimania by Glenn Flear is an English-language chess tactics book built around fresh tactical puzzles, with positions taken from the games of Glenn Flear and Christine Flear rather than the usual well-worn examples.
It is designed for players who want to improve through practice, moving from more accessible exercises to genuinely demanding ones. The book also includes manga-style illustrations, which give it a lighter visual feel without taking away from its training value.
What this book covers
Tactimania contains hundreds of tactical exercises arranged in steadily increasing difficulty. Because the positions come from the games of Glenn Flear and Christine Flear, many of them will feel unfamiliar even to readers who already solve tactics regularly. That makes the book especially useful for practical tactical training, self-study and chess instruction.
Glenn Flear is the author, and the book is published in paperback. It runs to 264 pages and was published on 3 June 2011.
