Have you ever wondered why you do well in certain tournaments and not in others? Are your opening choices the right ones? Is your attacking play good, bad, or "Tinder swipe left" ugly?

In this entertaining account, the author explains that to achieve success in chess, we need to understand what works for us. However, to achieve true mastery, we should prepare to go beyond our zone of comfort.

Along the way, he takes us on a journey through his own world of discovery and explains how he became one of the best chess players in England. It's a deeply honest and at times tragicomic memoir, as he also reveals his strategy for taking on his biggest rivals and how best to use computers to improve your chess.
