Dangerous Weapons: Flank Openings

Are you tired of playing the same old openings time and time again? Perhaps it`s time for a change, but you cannot decide between the numerous options available? Here`s the answer: choose Dangerous Weapons and amaze your opponents with new and exciting opening ideas!

In this book, three renowned opening experts get together to take a revolutionary look at Flank Openings. Instead of travelling down well-trodden and analysed paths, they concentrate on fresh or little-explored variations, selecting a wealth of `dangerous` options for both colours. Whether playing White or Black, a study of this book will leave you confident and fully-armed, and your opponents running for cover!

Dangerous Weapons is a series of opening books which supply the reader with an abundance of hard-hitting ideas to revitalize his or her opening repertoire. Many of the carefully chosen weapons are innovative, visually shocking, incredibly tricky, or have been unfairly discarded; they are guaranteed to throw even your most experienced opponents off balance.
