Volume 2 is divided into eight chapters. Unlike Volume 1, it is possibleto mix the order in which you study these chapters , but not to study the gameswithin each chapter out of order, since the examples build upon each other incomplexity. I suggest that the chapter on “Passed Pawns” should be studiedfirst, because many of the various middlegame structures can ultimately giverise to a passed pawn in the endgame. Work carefully through these examples,because masters use pawn structures even in the opening to predict the propertiesof endgames which can potentially arise – this is a widely neglected aspect andcan be a strong weapon for you!

Endgames with bishops versus knights are one of the most frequently occurring in chess. In his first volume international master and trainer Boroljub Zlatanovic, highlighted in his usual methodological way the concepts that can be mastered with a little effort. The book shows the key elements and different themes. By identifying mistakes made by even the best players, the author indicates the need for correct endgame technique with the light pieces. After practicing his conclusions, you soon will discover you are becoming a far more effective endgame player. This is Boroljub’s second book, after the highly acclaimed ‘Fundamental Chess Strategy in 100 Games’.

In his new endgame series, Boroljub Zlatanovic shows a profound understanding ofthe most common material imbalance in chess: that of the bishop against theknight. The didactic concept of the book is admirable as well as the detailed explanations of the typical characteristics of this endgame. Despite the importance ofthis subject, it has received very little detailed coverage in chess literature and thisencyclopedic work will definitely fill this gap and offer a lot of useful tips for practical play.Grandmaster Alexander DelchevMarch 2021
