Turbo-Charge your Tactics 1 (Paperback)

Turbo-Charge your Tactics 1 by Mykhaylo Oleksiyenko and Vladimir Grabinsky is an English-language paperback chess tactics book that goes beyond standard puzzle collections and trains you to spot less obvious tactical moves.

What this book covers

The authors built the material around the idea that rules and patterns alone are not enough in chess. Real progress often comes from regular tactical work, and this book is designed to help you break selective blindness and look more broadly at the position, even when the best move is not immediately obvious.

Inside, you will find training positions with both practical and aesthetic value, ranging from online bullet examples to fragments from grandmaster games. That mix keeps the material grounded in real play and shows that striking tactical ideas appear in fast online games as well as at the highest tournament level.

Why choose it?

This is a strong choice for players who already solve tactical exercises but want to move beyond familiar motifs and learn to recognise moves that break the usual pattern. It can be used for self-study or in work with a coach, and it supports more flexible thinking and better practical decisions in real games.
