    Dear chess player! You already defeated our first four books and learned how to put a mate on the enemy's king. Unfortunately, the chess game often fails to solve the problem in this way. The book "E" is designed to ensure that in your arsenal there are as many different chess techniques that will help you win victories. Your weapon will be both terrible double blows, and suffocating ligaments, and clever zastavki, and sweet distractions. You will learn how to release lines for the striking blows of your long-range figures, and in case of danger you will learn how to block the road to enemy figures and conduct your combinations. Do not be afraid to sacrifice a couple of pieces to the enemy to achieve the goal! Count the combination, and you will be able to return the material with interest. With the first tasks of each lesson, you can easily cope. The rest will be a little more difficult, but if you see weak fields on the board, pay attention to the unprotected figures of the enemy, the constrained position of his king, you will solve any problem. You can easily arrange all the positions on the chessboard, since the number of pieces in each position does not exceed 10. Good luck to you! The book is intended for chess players 2-3 digits <

    The authors continue to study typical opening and middlegame positions. Royal Fortress No. 2 has pawns on squares f7, g6, h7 (or f2, g3, h2), and they are usually joined by another defender – bishop on g7 (g2). This formation is called fianchetto, it is found in many popular openings, such as the Catalan Opening, King's Indian Defense, Grunfeld Defense and a number of others.  The authors analyze in detail the techniques of attack, defense and counterattack. Most examples – from the creativity of modern chess players (for example, a separate chapter is dedicated to the strongest Russian grandmaster Ian Nepomniachtchi); they are complemented by parts that have become a classical heritage. The book contains about 300 positions for independent solution, so it is not only a textbook, but also a solid problem book. Grandmaster Konstantin Chernyshov, head of the Interregional Grandmaster School in Kostroma, and his daughter International Master Natalya Kareva – experienced coaches, whose students include grandmasters and masters, champions of Russia and Europe among juniors.  The book is addressed to young chess players and their mentors.
