| Hesam7: "Secrets Of Attacking Chess" is a wonderful book by Marin. I really enjoy reading it. Highly recommended. |
|

 |
| KingG: <Hesam7> Yeah, i've got it as well. Haven't finished it though. Have you got his previous book, Secrets of Chess Defence? |
|
| Nov-12-05 |
| Hesam7: Unfortunately not. But this book is almost fascinating. "The Paradox of Century" or the chapter on Morphy are very original. |
|
Nov-12-05
|
| KingG: Yes that's true, i actually bought the book because of the chapter on Morphy. |
|
| Nov-12-05 |
| Hesam7: <KinG> Do you have the "Secrets of Chess Defense" ? |
|
Nov-12-05
|
| KingG: <Hesam7> No. But i've heard that it's a great book. More systematic than SOAC. There is a review by Watson somewhere where he says that it's one of the best books on defence he's ever seen. |

| jperr75108: Carsten Hansen reviews both in his "checkpoint" column this month at chesscafe.com. Both seem to be very favorable reviews |
|

| whiskeyrebel: Jeremy Silman has reviews of these two books up at his website. Marin is a skilled writer. He seems particularly strong when it comes to getting concepts across. His prose is way stronger than many if not most chess authors...in my humble opinion. |

| protean: "Learn from the Legends - Chess Champions at their Best" is an excellent book. It won ChessCafe.com's Book of the Year for 2005. |

| whiskeyrebel: My library has it on order..I can't wait. SOCD and SOAC were both great. I'll work my way happily through the 1...e5 books eventually even though I'm a dedicated Caro Kann player. |
