The Zwischenzug, also known as an intermezzo, or an intermediate move, regularly catches out club players but gets little attention in books and courses.
Finding it can be the difference between good and great chess play.
It’s a tactic that was played successfully more than 30 times in the 2023 World Championship – helping Ding Liren to victory, and once you study it, it will pay you back over and over, allowing you to turn the tables on your opponents.

Zwischenzug! A Comprehensive Guide to Intermediate Moves will teach you:
✏️ The different types of Zwischenzug and the “Awesome 8” patterns you need to look for to find them in your own games
✏️ How the Zwischenzug is so much more than just a tactic to win material – You will also discover how master players use it to gain a positional advantage and how to incorporate this higher level of play into your thinking at the board

The authors, Women’s International Master Natasha Regan and National Instructor Matt Ball, have analyzed thousands of games, including variations not played at the time, to reveal startling tactics and delicate positional finesses – all presented in easy-to-remember categories.
You will get more than 400 puzzles to test you on your intermediate move prowess, with an added bonus of 20 master games each including annotated Zwischenzug sequences, including over 30 from the 2023 Ding Liren – Ian Nepomniachtchi World Championship match.
