Bøker av Lars Schandorff

The Caro-Kann is renowned as a top-tier chess defense to 1.e4, and Lars Schandorff's Grandmaster Repertoire book on this opening received rave reviews. A decade later, Schandorff is back with a completely new repertoire which improves on his previous work in every way. With cutting-edge analysis, thorough explanations of positional motifs and instructively annotated illustrative games, this book is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the Caro-Kann.

Lars Schandorff¿s two volumes on 1.d4 were celebrated by reviewers and grandmasters. GM Simen Agdestein said: ¿I have recently been reading Lars Schandorff¿s Playing 1.d4 books, thinking that it cannot possibly get more instructive than this.¿ Meanwhile, GM Boris Avrukh¿s verdict was simple: ¿Lars, I want to play your book.¿Now Schandorff switches sides and offers a top-class Semi-Slav repertoire against 1.d4. The Semi-Slav strikes the perfect balance of ambition and soundness, which has made it popular at every level up to and including the world championship. Black needs to know his stuff, but Schandorff is the ideal guide to make the learning process a pleasure.
