Sicilian warfare – the new book

by Ilya Smirin

I think my second book was a success. I wrote it based on my experience for both colors. The reader will find examples of rapid attacks, solutions for interesting position and fascinating ending. I did not focus on the theory (although I gave a few debut recommendations), but rather tried to reveal typical (and some that aren’t) game plans, a variety of tactical and dynamic techniques.

All this is rich Sicilian protection – one of the most complex, interesting and popular debuts. The book is designed for a wide range of readers. I hope that both grandmasters and novice chess players will find a lot of useful things in it.
