 | Think Like a King Chess Workout Family Package
Difficult problems! A nice complement to problem books. I especially like how the software shows you the refutation if you pick a tempting but incorrect move.

 | Chess Tactics for Kids by Murray Chandler
Buy new: $10.17 / Used from: $6.95 Presumably this is good, like the "Beat Your Dad" book.
|
 | How to Beat Your Dad at Chess (Gambit Chess) by Murray Chandler
Buy new: $10.17 / Used from: $4.03 Surprisingly useful and quite well-produced reference on common mating combinations (it just has a silly title)
|
 | Chess: 5334 Problems, Combinations, and Games by Laszlo Polgar
Buy used from: $5.00 Big book, looks great! Nice big diagrams. Focus is on short mating combinations. It's often on sale at a local B&N.
|
 | Chess Openings: Traps And Zaps (Fireside Chess Library) by Bruce Pandolfini
Buy new: $11.90 / Used from: $0.08 Tactics in the opening; these are all fun miniatures
|
 | One Thousand and One Winning Chess Sacrifices and Combinations by Fred Reinfeld
Buy new: $10.20 / Used from: $2.00 Algebraic notation solutions, but clear standard Reinfeld diagrams make this a useful classic.
|
 | Chess Tactics for the Tournament Player (Comprehensive Chess Course Series) (Comprehensive Chess Course, Third Level) by Sam Palatnik
Buy new: $14.96 / Used from: $5.79 I like this book and this series, but it's short so it's good to have another source of lots of problems to drill.
|
 | Art of Attack in Chess by Vladimir Vukovic
Buy new: $26.95 / Used from: $13.69 More than just tactics; this is a phenomenal book.

Listmania!
