Book Synopsis

When
1975 dawned, the Sicilian Dragon, the most ferocious and exciting of openings
the chess world had ever known, was on its knees begging for mercy.

Anatoly
Karpov had just slain Viktor Korchnoi and Fischer's contemptuous approach -
"open the h-file, sac, sac, mate!" - seemed to have spelled the Dragon's end.
But already in the background there were acolytes attempting to repair the
damage, to replace the beast's scales and recharge its fiery breath.

DragonMasters
2 covers
the tempestuous two decades that followed, pitting the world's deadliest
attackers against each other: tactical brutes such as Planinc and Velimirovic,
Miles and Mestel, Short and Tiviakov - all choosing sides in the greatest
opening debate of all.

Would
the sword-and-spear DragonSlayer followers of Karpov and Fischer prevail once
again? Or would the reinvigorated DragonMasters prove that myth and legend
could survive in a modern setting? The final answer would arrive at the very
top of the world...
