One of those super reads from New in Chess! --Elburg Chess Reviews I feel Hertan's work is useful to everyone and connects best with players inclined to tactical, sharp, forcing play. Hertan devotes a chapter to explain some methods of calculation in chess like how to approach long, forcing variations. Must materials to improve your chess. --Miguel Ararat Florida Chess A very sophisticated and warm-hearted technical appraisal of Judit Polgar's chess and in particular her attacking prowess. The layout of the book is very inviting and easy to follow. Highly recommended. --Michael Mkpadi Chess Club Live This book manages to achieve something that I don't find that often, in that it is more or less accessible to everyone while at the same time being of value to stronger players. Especially within the Calculation chapter, which contains many examples annotated at quite some depth. Therefore I feel comfortable recommending this book to everyone. --Chris Wainscott On the Road to Chess Master Now, thanks to Hertan's well-written explanations, the reader too should be able to increase their own killer instinct. --CHESS Magazine (UK) A good book from New in Chess. Judit Polgar was ranked No. 8 in the world and is the only woman who has battled with the greatest players. Judit was a superb tactician, and the book is a collection of her finest combinations. --Simen Agdestein, Grandmaster VG Daily Newspaper (Norway)
