Description

The Sicilian is Black's most dynamic, asymmetrical reply to 1. e4. It produces the psychological and tension factors which denote the best in modern play and gives notice of a fierce fight on the very first move.


The Sicilian Defense became recognized as the defense that offered Black the most winning chances against 1.e4. Great players like Bobby Fischer and Garry Kasparov favored sharp, aggressive play and employed the Sicilian Defense almost exclusively throughout their careers, burning down the white attacks. This Anti-Sicilian Bible provides you with all kind of weapons to counter White's set-ups in the best and dynamic ways possible. The material provided is up-to-date to May 2022.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
