“Kovalchuk, who has worked as a trainer for top Russian GMs, advocates for a more mainstream approach, toning down Black’s play where he believes it warranted. This means …c6 against the Fianchetto variation and after 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 d5 4.Nf3 Bg7 5.h4… Quality Chess is known for providing comprehensive indexes for its books, and Playing the Grünfeld devotes seven of its pages to this important resource.”
IM John Donaldson
“The book is nicely presented and has high production values. The subject matter is up-to-date, with many references to games played up to 2019… Playing the Grünfeld is an excellent book, which I can recommend to any player of this opening.”
