Only a few top chess players know how to share their
grandmasterly thinking with others. Without any doubt, English
grandmaster Daniel King is one of them. Apart from the
introduction, the CD at hand contains 29 Databases issued between
1995 and 2000 when King was in charge of the “Strategy” column of
the ChessBase Magazine. His broad theme spectrum reaches from king
marches via opposed castlings to shifting rooks. From King’s
database one always derives double benefit: firstly, each article
reveals secrets of mind of a grandmaster and outstanding
representative of the English chess school, and secondly, his
videos and texts are highly entertaining.
