About the Book

The secret of its success may be its anti-positional looks. The pawn thrust g2 - g4 is often so counter-intuitive that it's a perfect way to confuse your opponents and disrupt their position. Ever since World Champion Mikhail Botvinnik started using it to defeat the elite grandmasters of his day, it has developed, on all levels of play, into an ever more popular and attractive way to fight for the initiative. Grandmaster Dmitry Kryakvin owes a substantial part of his successes as a chess player to the g2 - g4 attack. In this book he shows how it can be used to defeat a number of important Closed Defences: the Dutch, the Queen's Gambit, the Anti-Nimzo Indian, the King's Indian and the Slav. With lots of instructive examples Kryakvin explains the ins and outs of the attack on the g-file: the typical ways to gain tempi and keep the momentum, and the manoeuvres that will maximize your opponent's problems. After working with this book you will be fully equipped to use this modern battering ram to define the battlefield. You will have fun and win games!

Review :
"A veritable potpourri of aggressive ideas to spice your White openings. This book is aimed at the player who perhaps plays main lines most of the time and would like a sort of 'something for the weekend' addition to their repertoire for those 'must win' situations. For completeness players of the Black pieces might want to be prepared to face these aggressive lines that might become more fashionable following its publication."--John Upham "British Chess News" "I really enjoyed the book, because the author is talking to me like a friend. A great book, which deserves a place in everyone's chess library!"--Davide Nastasio "Georgia Chess News" "Kryakvin shows in a fascinating way that g2-g4 can be played in virtually every chess opening. The reader gets an excursion through the fanciful g2-g4 landscape guided by wizards such as Shirov, Mamedyarov, Zvjagintsev and Rapport. This is for readers who love cheerful chess books and for the aggressive club player who likes to surprise his opponent."--Florian Jacobs "Max Euwe Center Newsletter" "Surprisingly, Kryavkin traces the modern embrace of the anti-positional thrust to the great Soviet mid-20th century world champ Mikhail Botvinnik, who was not generally known as a risk-taker or mold-breaker. But from his earliest days as a candidate master in the 1930s, Botvinnik used the g2-g4 idea repeatedly against unsuspecting opponents to great effect, Kryavkin notes.--David Sands "Washington Times"
