Is there any book recommend for begginer's middle/endgame?

 

I just don't have any tactics for middle game that after the opening, even though i have most of the center control, i still lose by miles at middle games.

It's like I just start fighting for survival after the opening, although i should have won. One more question, my opponents always played early queen, right after developing the bishop, or before that. And I just lose my tempo right at that point, th eueen is just domianting the whole thing. Any advice for it?

If they bring out the queen early in the game, attack the queen with your knights/bishops/central pawns. If they move the queen onto a square that can't be immediately attacked, carry on with your plan and develop your pieces.

how about if my developing moves doesn't threaten the quenn, that's the problem.

This game for example, what should i do to prevent this situation again?
should i not exchange the pawn in the first place or what?

don't play g3, play Nf3 if you want to be playing lines with f4, which you probably shouldn't. The reason your opponent played the queen out in this case is because it gives him/her a better position than if he hadn't, as your king has moved.

I highly recommend Yassar Seirawan's "Winning" series.  He explains concepts really well.  I have his Tactics book as well as the Strategy book.  Another great book is Patrick Wolff's "Complete Idiot's Guide to Chess".   Jeff Coakley's "Chess Strategy for Kids" is probably the most comprehensive book I've read, though. Easy to understand, and covers a ton of useful information. Don't let the "kids" in the title fool you.

For Middlegame: 

 

1.) Understanding Chess Middlegames (John Nunn) 

2.) The Art Of The Middle Game (1964) 

3.) Complete Chess Strategy (Pachman) 

 

For Endgame 

 

1.) Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual

2.) Silman's Complete Endgame Course (For Beginners to Masters)

I love it when my opponent takes his/her queen out early in the game. I always punish him/her for taking queen early by creating multiple attacks using my knights and bishops. It either results in the Queen getting trapped or I have huge tempo advantage because the opponent keeps moving queen on and on until it goes back from where it came from.

A sample game from Discovering Chess Openings: 1 e4 e5 2 Qh5 Nc6 3 Bc4 g6 4 Qf3 Nf6 5 g4 Nd4 6 Qd1 d5 7 exd5 Bxg4 8 Ne2 Nf3+ 9 Kf1 Bh3#

By the way, has Hungman been around in the last seven years?
