In the chess satire stakes @KingpinEd are masters of the art form … a veritable feast: irony, sarcasm, hyperbole

some of the most varied, sometimes most interesting, and certainly least inhibited chess writing available today

unquestionably the funniest chess magazine in the world

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

leaves my game shiny, manageable, natural looking

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

The joy of chess is nowhere celebrated to such climactic excesses as in Kingpin

In Kingpin, nothing is sacred, and this makes Kingpin such a hit

the ‘Private Eye’ of the chess world

an entertaining, irreverent chess magazine that takes you over to the lighter side with verve and panache
