BEZGODOV - The liberated bishop defence

In many 1.d4 openings, Black has trouble getting his bishop on c8 into play. Former Russian Chess Champion Alexey Bezgodov presents a radical solution to this nagging problem; liberate your bishop right away and put it on f5 on the second move!

Play 2...Bf5! against either 2.c4 or 2.Nf3 will surprise your opponent and is also a great way to support your development, because the bishop takes control of the important square e4. If White does not immediately take decisive action, then within a move or two he can relinquish any hopes on an opening advantage.

Alexey Bezgodov has found some great antidotes to White's most dangerous reactions in sharp and attractive lines. To test your understanding of his system he has included more than 100 exercises. After studying the fresh ideas and the clear explanations presented in The Liberated Bishop Defencechess players of almost every strength will enjoy the flexibility of a surprising, effective and universal weapon against 1.d4.

Henris: The Complete Albin Counter-Gambit

Authored by Belgian FIDE Master Luc Henris, an expert on the Albin, this book covers the Albin Counter-Gambit on about 600 (!) pages. It provides you with up-to-date analysis and innovative ideas to fight the Queen´s Gambit. While it has long been underestimated by master and club players alike, it is especially Morozevich (ELO 2760 as of May 2013) who revived the Albin in recent years. If it´s good for him, it´s good for us too: an entertaining, surprising, and sound counter-weapon for Black.

OBODCHUK - The Four Knights Game A New Repertoire In A Old Chess Opening

Cela faisait longtemps qu'on avait plus rien vu sur la partie des 4 cavaliers, mais il est vrai que les nouveautés ne se bousculent pas dans une ouverture qui reste surtout une arme de secours pour journée de flemme ou le temps de réparer une espagnole ébréchée... Neanmoins, si l'envie vous prend de tâter de la symétrie intégral, voci le livre qu'il vous faut.

Lakdawala - the Four Knights move by move

Les vacances arrivent, et pendant les vacances, personne n'a envie de se prendre la tête. Conscient de cet état de fait, Everyman nous offre un mois spécial ‘débuts mous', avec pour commencer la Quatre (ou parfois trois) cavaliers. L'ami Cyrus explore ici à fond la version espagnole, tente de réhabiliter le gambit de Belgrade (bon courage, mais au moins c'est fun) et n'oublie pas la variante Glek (4.g3). A l'arrivée, son bouquin est nettement plus plaisant que celui d'Obodchuk - c'est toujours ça.
