Code: 1337-SP-The King's Indian - Bologan (Chess Stars 2009)

This is a repertoire book for Black in the King's Indian by an elite player and experienced author. Victor Bologan doesn't give every line for Black, only the ones that he considers best or those in his personal repertoire. There is a lot to fit into the book's 356 pages, and Bologan does an admirable job of covering the lines in breadth and in depth.

Part 1. Minor Variations [Chapters 1-10]

Part 2. Averbakh Variation [Chapters 11 and 12]

Part 3. Saemisch Attack [Chapters 13-16]

Part 4. Four Pawns Attack [Chapters 17-19]

Part 5. Classical Variation [Chapters 20-27]

Part 6. Fianchetto Systems [Chapters 28-31]

[Final Part] Other Fianchetto Systems [Chapters 32-34]

Bologan has followed the approach familiar to readers of other Chess-Stars opening books, especially the Khalifman series: on the first page of each Part, the author gives a brief introduction to White's ideas in his chosen method of facing the KI, and then at the beginning of each chapter Bologan gives a very brief explanation of White's goals of the chosen system and how Black ought to deal with them. As he moves through the lines he proposes he gives some brief tactical/strategic comments and in some cases shows why this or that move should be played. When the time comes for sample continuations from GM practice, Bologan gives the line with a brief evaluative comment at the end.
