But learning Chess on your own isn’t easy and starting at the beginning is challenging.Many Chess books overload you with information about openings, history, notation, and other things beginners don’t need to know and don’t understand. But in this highly anticipated prequel to the Conquer your Friends series, I’m going to show you how you to play the game of Chess and WIN in a heinously short amount of time. 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. Who is this book for? Perhaps, you’ve never played Chess but you’ve always wanted to learn and never had the chance. 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 nail the questions teachers commonly miss. 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’ll learn how 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!
