I am working on a new chess tactics book that will be out by the holiday season for the Amazon Kindle eBook reader.

I need your help deciding on which cover to use!

Go here and make your pick!

There are 8 different choices. You can rate each cover with a scale of 1-5 stars, and leave comments.

Should just take a minute, and others have told me it was fun, and the feedback is appreciated!

Cheers,
Tim

P.S. I know you were possibly told "Never judge a book by it's cover", but in this case, you are allowed 😉 https://99designs.com/book-cover-design/vote-7zdntp

done!

for me 1 really stood out.But apparently few others like it LOL

Thanks Tim and a thumbs up for the effort. In #14, is the board turned wrong?

thanks Monty! Your comments were great! Do you work in design? Or just own too many chess books 🙂

cool, #16 is winning so far 🙂 And yeah, I think that the board is set up wrong on one of them, which MontyMoose pointed out, lol

I like 16 best

I liked #8. It would look better against a black background, however.

Just use a pic of Brian dressed up as Godzilla. 😉
I just now noticed the co-author. 🙂

No 16.

The ttitle is wrong. Call it:

Tactics Time in the Openings.

(anything with Opening the title sells.)

Of the 8 designs I like #16 best by far but I have a bit of a "thing" about anything which is "101" or "1001" ways to do something, maybe thats just me but I'd rather the title was less prescriptive in that way and more generic "themes and ideas" rather than trying to get to a "special" number

I wish you all the best with the book, anything not written by a GM/IM I find much more instructive than the dross they push out...

Hey Tim, any other platforms the book will be on? I have a Nook and a PC.

I liked #19,sober and stylish.

But few agree
