Two great books for players who play the Sicilian Defence and
King's Indian Defence in one volume. Fighting the anti-King's
Indian by Yelena Denbo Fighting the anti-Sicilians by Richard
Palliser 'I love playing the King's Indian, but no-one ever allows
me to reach my favourite opening!' Does this sound like an all too
familiar complaint? You will reach your favourite opening in barely
half the games you play against 1 d4, and that's why this book is
the ideal guide to play against those annoying White systems
designed to avoid the main lines: the Trompowsky; the London
System; the Torre Attack; the Barry Attack; the Colle System; the
Veresov; the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit - the list goes on and on!
Yelena Dembo, who as a hardened King's Indian and Grunfeld player
has considerable experience facing these irritating openings, deals
with them in no uncertain terms, in each case offering Black a
no-nonsense solution that enables you to face the future with
confidence The Sicilian Defence is by far Black's most popular
answer to 1 e4 at all levels of chess. The reason for this is easy
to understand: from the very first move Black unbalances the
position and can play for a win without needing to take unjustified
risks. This is particularly the case with the Open Sicilian, where
Black can take comfort from the knowledge that his superior pawn
structure ensures control of the centre and excellent long-term
chances. Richard Palliser, a lifelong Sicilian devotee, decides
it's time for Black players to finally fight back! Drawing upon his
vast experience and understanding of Anti-Sicilians, Palliser
creates a dynamic and practical repertoire for Sicilian players to
use against these possibilities. In many instances he offers more
than one solution for Black - ambitious or solid - and he pays
special attention to tricky move orders, weapons that present-day
players are likely to use.
