PALLISER - Starting Out : The Trompowsky Attack
Retour sur une ouverture qui, du point de vue des blancs, présente trois avantages considérables : 1°/ réduire la quantité de théorie à apprendre, 2°/ empoisonner les noirs et 3°/ donner naissance à des positions amusantes. Quoique, en y réfléchissant, le troisième point est aussi la faiblesse majeure de l'ouverture, les noirs ayant aussi quelques chances de s'amuser Comme je dis toujours, on ne peut pas tout avoir. En tous cas, voici un excellent moyen de s'initier au plus atypique des débuts semi-fermés.

Fleischman - The Richter - Veresov Attack (Qd3 variation)
Do you play 1.d4, but feel discouraged by the seemingly limitless number of finely honed defensive systems available to Black? If you’re put off by the idea of having to learn massive amounts of theory just to reach a playable middlegame, then The Richter-Veresov Attack: Qd3 Variation might be just what you’re looking for.
Right away, you’ll be taking your opponents out of their preparation and into your comfort zone. While the Richter-Veresov has developed its own “book” over the years, Eric Fleischman shows you how to bypass a lot of that body of theory, too, with an early deployment of the queen to d3, an idea sometimes known as the Amazon Attack.
Covering a wide range of setups that Black could adopt in response (including French, Caro-Kann, Indian, Benoni, and Dutch formations), the author uses games by international players and examples from his own play to show how experience and a sense of the position count for more than memorized lines in The Richter-Veresov Attack: Qd3 Variation. 283 pages

PINSKI - The Benko Gambit
Ceux qui espéraient un ouvrage de référence remplaçant le Guide to the Benko Gambit de Pedersen, désormais un peu ancien (1999), et complétant l'excellent Benko Gambit Revealed de McDonald seront probablement déçus : avec ses 124 pages, ce nouvel opus est sans doute un peu succinct pour remplir cet office... Dans sa forme, il évoque nettement les monographies Everyman - ce qui n'est pas une surprise, le MI polonais étant un pur produit de l'écurie de Northburgh Street. A défaut de fournir une référence vraiment exhaustive, ses 49 parties complètes fourniront donc autant d'exemples concrets illustrant les thèmes développés naguère par McDonald, et les commentaires donneront un second avis utile à ceux qui veulent se lancer dans le Benkö.

Ivanisevic - Benoni
The Benoni is a chess opening that offers Black excellent chances to play for a win. One of the main reasons for this is that it creates unbalanced positions from the very beginning, which favors the player with a better understanding of the nuances of the position. The Benoni involves Black placing their pawns on d6 and c5, and then fianchettoing their dark-squared bishop on g7. This setup creates a solid pawn structure and puts pressure on White’s center, making it difficult for them to launch a direct attack, while simultaneously threatening the c3 knight and the b2 pawn.
The Benoni is a chess opening that originated in the 19th century, but it wasn’t until the mid-20th century that it gained widespread popularity. The Benoni was initially viewed as somewhat dubious, as it allowed White to gain a strong pawn center with moves like d5 and e4. However, in the 20th century, players such as Mikhail Tal and Robert Fischer began to experiment with the Benoni and achieve success with it. They demonstrated that the opening could create dynamic and unbalanced positions that favored Black’s attacking chances. Over the years, the Benoni has gone through many variations and refinements as players on both sides have sought to find the best way to play against it. Despite this, the opening remains a popular and viable option for Black, offering excellent chances to play for a win in the right hands.
As a player, Ivanišević has had many successful games with the Benoni, including wins against many top-ranked players. He is known for his aggressive and dynamic style of play, which is well-suited to the Benoni’s unbalanced and tactical positions. He has been playing Benoni for more than ten years in both classical and rapid chess formats.
The book ”Benoni“ is an invaluable resource for anyone looking to master this exciting and challenging opening. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced player, this book is sure to help you improve your game and achieve better results. The book covers all the key variations of the Benoni and provides readers with a deep understanding of the opening’s strategic and tactical ideas. Ivanišević’s extensive experience and expertise with the opening are evident in the book, which is full of practical tips, annotated games, and detailed analysis. 295 pages

JANJGAVA - King's indian and Grünfeld : Fianchetto lines
Un mot tout d'abord pour lever l'ambiguïté du titre : 80 % des 300 et quelques pages de ce petit pavé sont consacrées à l'Est-indienne, la Grünfeld devant se contenter d'une portion congrue - déséquilibre justifié par la fréquence relative des deux lignes, et accessoirement par le fait que la «Fianchetto Grünfeld» avait fait l'objet il y a peu d'années d'une monographie exhaustive chez un éditeur concurrent. Comme toujours chez Gambit, l'ouvrage est (très) riche en variantes, mais l'auteur - dont on avait déjà pu apprécier le travail sur la Petroff - ne manque jamais de glisser ce qu'il faut d'explications pour permettre à son lecteur de ne pas perdre le fil des évènements. A l'arrivée, un travail sérieux qui fournira aux joueurs de pion-dame un répertoire tout trouvé pour lutter contre deux des plus dangereuses défenses noires.

Kotronias/Ivanov - The london files (defanging the london system)
OUT OF PRINT
Although the London System was first played almost 200 years ago, it lay dormant until the beginning of the 21st century. Then chessplayers rediscovered it, realizing that the London could be played against most responses by Black, obtaining a good game with little preparation.
Nowadays the London has evolved into an opening taken up by both club players and world champions. Magnus Carlsen has played it regularly and the new word champion Ding Liren used it to convincingly defeat Ian Nepomniachtchi in game six of their 2023 title match.
Literature on the London has focused primarily on play from White’s side. However, this new book by grandmasters Vassilios Kotronias and Mikhail Ivanov changes all that. Thea authors present four (!) separate ways to combat the London: (1) King’s Indian Setups; (2) the London Benoni; (3) the London Nimzo- and Queen’s Indian; and (4) the London Orthodox System.
The London Files presents Black many good and flexible options for neutralizing White, while also giving us Londoners many new problems to contend with ... Without a doubt, this book will give Black players highly effective means to deal with the London System for a long time to come and may even have players completely rethinking their approach with the white pieces. – From the Foreword by Ian Harris
