Jacob Aagaard – Forward Chess Author of the Month

November 21st, 2023 10 comments

Our friends at Forward Chess have a feature where they interview an author. The latest one is an interview with Jacob. So if you want to know more about Jacob, his books and the origins of Quality Chess, click that link.

The previous month featured an interview with Nikos Ntirlis. That interview also linked to a discussion about Nikos’s 1.c4 repertoire. The book is of course called Playing the English.

Free ‘Book of the Month’ – November and December

November 7th, 2023 3 comments

We are continuing our free-fourth-book offer – if you buy three books or more and live in the normal European Union zone (as defined by UPS – for example, they exclude some islands and remote areas) we will send you an extra book free.

Please note that if you buy a Special Offer and are in the EU zone, we will add one free book. For example, if a European buys the Special Offer on our award-winning Grandmaster Preparation series, then we would send the 6 hardcovers, plus one free extra book.

The previous default option on the free book was CARLSEN’S ASSAULT ON THE THRONE.

For November and December, we will switch the default option to LUTHER’S CHESS REFORMATION. But if you already have that book, or would prefer a different free book, then send us an email to salesgroup@qualitychess.co.uk with your order number, asking to have it replaced with one of the following titles:

ATTACKING THE SPANISH
CARLSEN’S ASSAULT ON THE THRONE
CUTTING EDGE 1: THE OPEN SICILIAN
CUTTING EDGE 2: SICILIAN NAJDORF 6.Be3
GRANDMASTER BATTLE MANUAL
GRANDMASTER VERSUS AMATEUR (HARDCOVER)
REGGIO EMILIA 2007/2008
THE ALTERMAN GAMBIT GUIDE – BLACK GAMBITS VOLUME 1
THE ALTERMAN GAMBIT GUIDE – BLACK GAMBITS VOLUME 2

Playing the English – PDF Update

November 3rd, 2023 36 comments

Playing the English has received great reviews, but readers also pointed out some lines that should have been included in the book. So we asked author Nikos Ntirlis to produce an update and he delivered more excellent material. You can read the APPENDIX PDF at that link. The same material is also linked at the book’s webpages, so it should be easy to find for all readers. Hope you enjoy the update and that it helps 1.c4 players to even better results.
