About An Attacking Repertoire For White With
Review "It's always an intense experience turning the pages of a Moskalenko book and this is no exception. It's crammed full of opening ideas which will suit players of all strengths. His mix of wit, weapons and wisdom strikes me as the ideal source for anyone seeking inspiration. Well-explained introductions, conclusions and summaries, exercises in the text and overall fine presentation." -- Glenn Flear, Yearbook 132"A series of aggressive and sometimes offbeat lines, aimed at putting each of Black's Defenses under pressure right from the start. Fully accessible for club players." -- Sean Marsh, CHESS Magazine"A host of interesting new and dangerous ideas that help you to fight for whole point with the white pieces." -- John Upham, British Chess News"Moskalenko's lines would be a good match for a dynamic, aggressive player, while I could imagine established 1.d4 players referencing the book to add a couple interesting extra lines to their repertoire. As always, Moskalenko's writing is enthusiastic, creative and entertaining." -- Matthew Sadler, former British Champion, Game Changer"Most openings represented in this volume need to be known for the first 10 moves, and then one should remember the ideas Moskalenko explains in order to find the next moves. I believe this book belongs in everyone's chess library for the amount of annotated games. Just being exposed to them, and Moskalenko's wise commentary, will help a player to improve and understand better chess." -- Davide Nastasio, Georgia Chess News"A book full of surprises, early deviations of well-known variations. A fine book for those who have been playing 1.d4 for a long time and now (for a change) want to play something surprising." -- Johan Hut, Noord-Holland Dagblad"I like the variations that GM Moskalenko proposes a lot, and the reader gets some poisonous recommendations against the most common responses to 1.d4. The author thoroughly knows what he's talking about and represents some novelties as well. This book is a must for 1.d4 players who would like to get aggressive!" -- Dirk Schuh, International Master Product Description Viktor Moskalenko is one of the leading chess instructors of our time. Not only has he coached Masters and Grandmasters, including Ukrainian star Vasily Ivanchuk, he has also taught hundreds of classes for amateurs and his best-selling books have inspired thousands of ambitious club players all over the world. Moskalenko's previous and highly popular chess opening books were mainly written for the Black pieces. Now he presents an extremely powerful set of lines for White. The guiding principle of his 1.d4 repertoire is: be bold and put pressure on your opponent as early as possible. Moskalenko does not shower you with long computer-generated variations but has a keen eye for the essence of positions. His talent to find new resources in well-known lines results in a host of novelties, daring recommendations and cunning tricks. When you play his lines and follow his recommendations you will frequently surprise your opponent and build up positions full of swing. Studying An Attacking Repertoire for White with 1.d4 is a delight because this is a typical Moskalenko book: practical, accessible, original and inspiring. About the Author Viktor Moskalenko (1960) is an International Grandmaster and a FIDE Senior Trainer. The former Ukrainian champion's most recent books are The Even More Flexible French, Training with Moska and The Fabulous Budapest Gambit.
