Review

Raja who has been playing this opening for years, so he clearly understands what he is talking about. One thing stands out to me is his intelligent assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of computer evaluations in these middlegames. Excellent content, could be Book of the Year 2017. John Upper, Canadian Chess Newsfeed 05.2017

The Hyper-Accelerated Dragon hasn’t been given enough credit as far as I can see and I really hope to see it do well in the stores. Panjwani’s efforts deserve it. Final rating: 6* /6 – this is easily my favourite opening book that I’ve read in recent times. Go get it! IM Kevin Goh, Chess.com 11.2017
