''Feast of chess' is probably a hackneyed phrase in chess book reviews but there is hardly a better way to describe this book." - Phil Hughes, Chess Post

"... I found these games just as enjoyable as they were challenging. They stretched my powers without breaking them, and I have already learned a lot - about the game, and about how to study the game. As they say on the NASCAR circuit, this book has a high top end. Put on your seat belts and enjoy the ride!" - Derek Grimmell, Chesscafe

"Verdict: excellent material for enjoyment and training. Highly recommended." - Phil Adams, 3Cs website
