Fire on Board Volume 2 are now brought together in a single volume.
ln this collection of his best games from 1983 to 2004, Grandmaster
Alexei Shirov shows why he is widely regarded as one of the most
aggressive and inventive players of the modern era. lt contains a
delightful selection of his favourite games, each of which is
explained in detail, together with sections on tactical highlights
and endgames. Special attention is devoted to the super-sharp
Botvinnik variation, which Shirov has used to remarkable effect
against the world's leading players. Since becoming a grandmaster
in 1990, Alexei Shirov has firmly established himself amongst the
world's leading players. His many tournament successes include
first place at Munich in 1993 and equal second with Kasparov behind
Karpov at Linares in 1994. His penchant for wild attacking games
has made him a great favourite with the chess public, who see him
as natural heir to another Latvian, the former world champion
Mikhail Tal.
