The Cutting Edge 1 – The Open Sicilian 1


The Cutting Edge 1 – The Open Sicilian 1 por Milos Pavlovic this book is the first in a new series from

Quality Chess examining the cutting edge of opening theory. The idea is to identify the most

important theoretical battlegrounds of the moment and then analyse as deeply as possible in search

of improvements. Thus the reader will be ahead of the current state-of-the-art, rather than lagging

Reviews

“It is clear that Pavlovic has invested immense effort in making the books as comprehensive, up-to-

date and helpful as possible… These books can be given the highest recommendation to serious over-

the-board and correspondence players who want to have the best available information on the chosen

variations in a well organised and well-packaged form. *****”

Phil Adams

“I recommend The Open Sicilian 1 for players that are interested in how various lines in the Sicilian

might be refuted according to the current cutting edge theory and are looking for valuable new ideas

that would work very well as surprise weapons. 4 Stars”

GM Hedinn Steingrimsson

“This is the first in an exciting new series from Quality Chess which examines the absolute cutting

edge of opening theory. The big idea is to identify the most important current theoretical

battlegrounds and analyse them as deeply as possible in search of improvements and important

ideas. So, irrespective of which colour you  play, you will have access to the very latest material

backed up by original analysis from a seasoned Grandmaster. This volume offers three(!) ways to try

to beat the Sveshnikov… Amazing! Regular readers of this column will know how unimpressed I have

been with some of the recent published attempts on how to play against this defence but here we

have three highly instructive and well researched weapons. All three lines are dealt with in

impressive detail (as are all the chapters in the book) and the serious CC player will not be disappointed.

 

As well as combating the Pelikan, there are three chapters on the 9.Bc4 Yugoslav Dragon dealing with

the Chinese (Rb8 instead of Rc8), 12 Kb1 Re8 and Topalov (Nxd4 and early b5) variations, three

Chapters on the Taimanov and two more on the Kan complete the work. Offering different ideas

against a Main Line is a very interesting concept and, given that so much information is packed into

this thin volume, I would have to say it is one of the most impressive opening books I have ever seen.”

John Anderson
