Raves and Reviews
The book is light and easy-going. The author emphasizes the pragmatic nature of the proposed repertoire: less to learn, avoiding 'pet lines', strategically sound, and so on. An original book.
– Grandmaster Glenn Flear, Diplo: Towards more inclusive and effective diplomacy
The idea behind this: avoid theoretical battles and surprise your opponent. Furthermore, after playing 5.f3 it is almost impossible to end up in a position that is not solid.
– Martin Rieger, Schachwelt
A decent alternative to surprise a well-armed opponent. The book as a whole is enthusiastically written and there are many new ideas.
– Carsten Hansen, ChessCafe.com
The author is not related to Garry but he is a fine writer. There are plenty of games demonstrating how White can extract a slight edge against popular lines. A nice Sicilian repertoire.
– Gary Lane, International Master, CHESS Magazine
Steamrolling the Sicilian has not, of course, refuted the Sicilian, because that is impossible, but the typical Black counter-play is being effectively neutralized.
– Johan Hut, Noord-Hollands Dagblad
An excellent overview of an interesting variation.
– Joe Petrolito, Australasian Chess Magazine
I like this book a lot. It is a hefty tome full of material that we can learn from, also in 2014.
