Chess puzzles online or in a book?

Are you a chess enthusiast who likes a challenge? We offer you the perfect one in our puzzle corner. We provide puzzles for every level, from beginner to beyond expert. Try so solve Step 1 all the way to Step 8! (Step 7 and 8 puzzles are not available as book). We renew the puzzles every week. Although every form of training will be helpful, solving chess puzzles online has its downsides. In a book you have no other option then to calcute every line. You can not simply try a move. You can not hover with a piece or draw lines, which means you will have to visualize it all and therefore train your visualization skills much more effectively. If you solve chess puzzles online: be disciplined! Do not use the hint button too often.
