Reviews
"A very interesting book, full of anecdotes I have never seen elsewhere. Entertaining and instructive." -- Sean Marsh, CHESS Magazine (UK) on Timmans Titans
The ultimate book on Karpov Kasparov. Jan Timman has again written a monumental history book on a subject that will continue to capture our imagination. -- Johan Hut, Noord Hollands Dagblad
Timman remembers the many twists of each match, supplies his impressions from the time and takes a fresh look. -- CHESS Magazine, UK
Timman, as a top grandmaster, rival and contemporary, is in an excellent position to make sense of the sometimes chaotic political rumpus, but as an outsider he is able to be sufficiently objective. Again a splendid book from Jan Timman. -- International Master Jeroen Bosch, Schaakmagazine
