Kingpin is a very, very nice magazine

A great English chess favourite

If more people read this magazine then it would have a higher circulation

one of the very few chess publications that call a chess spade a chess spade

Unpredictable, honest, the funniest

those who are unfamiliar with Kingpin are missing out on a real delight: there are many good chess magazines around, but in my opinion Kingpin is the best out there

Utterly irreverent . . .  genuine wit . . . good instruction for club players

uses impiety and parody to hew down the conventions of publishing, even including mock testimonials

very, very entertaining

[its] satirical nature and penchant for sharp games makes it compulsive reading for the average club player
