About this product
 
Starting Out: The Accelerated Dragon is a further addition to Everyman’s best-selling Starting Out series, which has been acclaimed for its original approach to tackling chess openings.

The Accelerated Dragon is a dynamic choice for Black and arguably the most natural way to play the Sicilian: Black develops rapidly and chooses the most active squares to place his or her pieces. Unsuspecting White players hoping for a direct attack similar to the one used against the traditional Dragon are shocked by Black's increased options due to the flexible move order. Instead, White sometimes employs a more positional approach incorporating the famous Maroczy Bind, when the battle centers on White's impressive pawn structure against Black's lively pieces and the ability to create a pawn break.

Features:
  • User-friendly design to help readers absorb ideas
  • Includes coverage of the Hyper-Accelerated Dragon
  • Ideal for improvers, club players and tournament players
International Master Andrew Greet, an Accelerated Dragon expert, revisits the fundamentals of the opening, elaborating on the crucial early moves and ideas for both sides in a way that is often neglected in other texts.

Specifications:
  • Paperback: 320 pages
  • Publisher: Everyman Chess; First edition (December 1, 2007)
