The Fighting Sicilian – A complete repertoire vs 1.e4 FM Marko Makaj

The Fighting Sicilian. The very name of this book tells you everything! In this book, I will try to show you how to play with the black pieces not only for equality but for the advantage. The repertoire is based on one of the most unique and aggressive Sveshnikov Sicilian lines in the mainline of the Open Sicilian. It also offers an aggressive approach against all other of White’s attempts. With this repertoire, you will be fully prepared for first move 1.e4. So, don’t wast any more time, get the book and play for the win!

In many lines, Black plays aggressively and wants to fight for the initiative right from the start. This gives him enough time for quick development and a safe position for the king. The Sveshnikov Sicilian is one of the most uncompromising openings in chess. Today this is the opening of choice for many leading players in the world. Ex-world champion Vladimir Kramnik plays it with great success. Here I will try to explain not only the forced lines, but also the often complex strategy that is behind the ideas.
