King's Indian – A Complete Repertoire for Black Part 2: The Classical Main Lines, Felix Blohberger (English, German)
The King’s Indian Defence has long been one of the most dynamic and popular responses to 1.d4. Champions like Garry Kasparov, Bobby Fischer, and Hikaru Nakamura have used it at the highest level – and it continues to thrive today because it gives Black not only a solid foundation but also rich attacking and counterattacking opportunities. Its great advantage: the King’s Indian is a universal system, equally effective against 1.d4, 1.c4, and 1.Nf3. Grandmaster Felix Blohberger, multiple Austrian Champion and experienced second, presents a complete two-part repertoire for Black. His approach is practical, clear, and flexible – no endless theory, but instead understandable concepts and strategies you can apply right away.
