Tactics Time 2 has everything I liked from Tactics Time 1 and much less of what I didn't like.Typos and duplicate games are nearly gone. In TT1, I started keeping notes near the beginning, there were so many. In TT2, I won't say there are zero, but close enough that it never bothered me.
Missing analysis (interesting lines not acknowledged) are down compared to TT1, as well. But there are still enough to keep an advanced player involved in spotting them.
The book is still pitched at players about 1200-1500, although stronger players may enjoy it too. It's still heavy on the one-mover problems and still heavy on the offense (very few games where the opponent makes an unsound sac and you have to find the one line that survives).
As other reviewers have commented, the format works fine on a (non-Fire) Kindle.
Good job. I'll be buying TT3 as soon as I see it!

(324) 28. Rxe5 Qf6 29. fxg6 Qg7 almost holds for Black. But then 30. Rxf7. This line beats 28. ... Qd7 by a country mile.
(459) The fork is crap: 23...Qe7+ 24. Kxa4 Qxe5? 25. Qxd7 and White is up. Better is 23...Qe7+ 24. Kxa4 Nc5+ winning the White Queen.
(588) Knight on g4 protected by bishop; not hanging.
(669) Also the beautiful line: 32...Nh3+ 33.Kh1 Nxf2+ 34. Kg1 34.Nh3++ 35. Kh1 Qg1+ 36. Rxg1 Nf2#
(681) 18...Qc3 looks stronger.
(704) 19...Bxb4 20.axb4 Qxb4+ 21.Qd2 Rc1+ 22. Ke2 Qxb5+ 23.Qd3. Black has three pawns for a piece but no clear attack.
(707) 29...e4 Rd4 and it's still a struggle. 29...a3 and the threat of ...Rb8 are stronger.
(719) 38.Rf5+ Ke7 39.Bxa6 and the b-pawn is harmless.

Tactics Time 2 1001 Real Chess Tactics From Real Chess Games Tactics Time Chess Tactics Books edition by Tim Brennan Anthea Carson Humor Entertainment eBooks Reviews
If you like chess you will enjoy this book. It will teach you to more carefully consider all moves during a game, and will almost certainly improve you winning percent. There is also a kindle version that I use, which allows me to expand the chess board and see the position much easier. Tim also will send you an email a couple times a week with more tactics to solve, and he has a daily calendar with a tactic to figure out. I have bought other chess books without getting much benefit, but tactics will improve the way you play chess. By the way, if you do not know about the chess position "Octopus" You will learn how effective it is from tactics. And also a bunch of others, such as the fishing pole trap. I am rated about 1600 and probably can solve about 75% fairly quickly. Usually each tactic requires from 1 to maybe 3 moves to solve. These are good for the brain also, they make you think and calculate the various positions that could arise as various pieces move.
This book and its predecessor Tactics Time 1 gives a lot of practice on visualizing tactics! Most problems can be understood by lower rated players but if you look at the comments you will see that even higher rated players miss them from time to time. There is little doubt that it will help u1600 the most as higher rated are higher because they have learned these. Nevertheless even experts should keep tactics sharp. Another plus is that every problem has a link to the game and you can click through all of the moves! That does require internet.
The author is one of the most responsive to contracts of any i have ever read and he also has a great Email list giving a daily problem.
I enjoy playing tons of rapid chess and as a result I like to stay stay sharp. This book is excellent lots of puzzles and like other reviews I agree that its better than than first (which is also excellent). The book is for intermediate level players, that is you are not given clues like in begginers tactic books where you are to, to find a fork, skewer etc. No clues are given, and this is how chess works. The puzzles are not from .grandmaster games same as the first book. But, This is exactly what I wanted, Bc at the clubs and local tournaments where I live ratings range and I end up getting paired up with players with all sorts of ratings, and its nice to spot mistakes in their games and quickly take advantage of it. This book has a ton of puzzles with all range of difficulties and since they are not GMs many arouse from a bad move (not necessarily a blunder) and after a while you will spot mistakes, and this will carry over into your personal games. In Rapid chess being able to spot mistakes quickly and take advantage of it can be crucial since Time plays a big role, being able to spot them quickly can give you an advantage. After working through this book you will see the rewards in your games especially if you like rapid chess like I do. Like the first book, if you are looking for Puzzles from GM games this book may not be for you. But if you are looking for a book where a bad move was made and you wanna spot the exploit quickly this book will be an asset. .Again this is good for intermediate level players, but I should clarify, intermediate level players in the USCF range 1200 to 1400. The book may not be great for advance players or intermediate level players approaching advance. Having said that, I personally find this book to be very good for its intended audience, and I myself use the book to test how fast I can solve the puzzles. So there is a use for the book if you are advance and want to test how fast you can solve the answers. I really enjoy this book.
