About the Book

The Sicilian Defense is an opening that commences with the moves 1.e4 c5. The Sicilian Defense is the most popular and best-scoring response to White’s first move 1.e4. For example, 1.d4, is a statistically more successful opening for White because of the high success rate of the Sicilian Defense against 1.e4. The Sicilian is Black’s most dynamic, asymmetrical reply to 1.P-K4. It produces the psychological and tension factors which denote the best in modern play and gives notice of a fierce fight on the very first move.’ The Modernized Grivas Sicilian is an unique variation within the Sicilian developed by Grandmaster Grivas, the reason why it has his name.

Review :
The sequence 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Qb6 wasn't invented by the Greek Grandmaster and noted trainer Efstratios Grivas, but there is no question he has played it more often and written about it in greater detail than anyone else. The present work, a massive tomb coming in at almost 500 pages, is his magnum opus. This book not only covers the theoretical niceties of this system which allows Black a fighting game where all three results are possible, but also includes chapters on middlegame and endgame strategy.IM John Donaldson, March 2022.
