Master the Surprise Move That Turns Games Around

Zwischenzug! is the first comprehensive guide to one of chess’s most surprising and powerful tactics: the intermediate move, also known as the intermezzo. This tactic breaks the expected flow of the game and catches opponents off guard – but only if you know when and how to use it.

Award-winning author Natasha Regan and chess coach Matt Ball have studied thousands of games to uncover the most common Zwischenzug patterns in practical play. The book organizes them into clear categories with memorable names, enriched by historic anecdotes, illustrative examples, and interactive exercises.

You’ll learn:

• When to spot Zwischenzugs—and how to find them in your own games

• How to set traps using intermediate moves

• Common mistakes and how to exploit them

• How Zwischenzugs can instantly shift the momentum in your favor

Based on the highly rated Chessable course (4.82/5 stars), this book is a tactical toolkit that will make your play sharper, trickier, and more resilient under pressure.
