Good puzzle

Nice move with the knight. Get to unstabilize the queen and/or rook.

Nice Mate in 4!

I looked for a quicker mate and solved as you made this in 4!

Very pretty!

I really liked this one. The first move was the only tricky move, but it required good visualization to see that both the Q and R were overworked.
