Suba's out-of-print book on The Hedgehog
is brilliant, and I've won at least one tournament game thanks to it. But it's also one of the most disorganized and confusing books I've ever read.
is brilliant, and I've won at least one tournament game thanks to it. But it's also one of the most disorganized and confusing books I've ever read.But now there's a much better alternative. I just got my copy of Sergey Shipov's The Complete Hedgehog, Volume 1
. So far, I've only thumbed through the 527 (!!) pages and read the introduction to various sections, I can tell you that it looks like an absolute masterpiece of clarity (considering how confusing this opening can be!). Furthermore, it looks to me like that rare opening book suitable for both 1600 and 2400 players.
