The Accelerated Dragon is an exciting way to meet 1 e4. By stationing the Bishop on g7, Black hopes to breathe fire on the White queenside.
Volume One covers the most popular White counter among Grandmasters, the Maroczy Bind. He gives two ways for Black to meet this strong system, one sharp, one solid. Take your pick!
The Accelerated Dragon move-order limits White's choice of aggressive variations and that is why it is so popular with many strong players.
On Volume Two of this series, Andrew Martin examines White's choices apart from the Maroczy Bind.
1) Classical Variation 2) Lines with Nxc6 3) The Pseudo-Yugoslav attack.
The conclusion is reached that Black is in fine shape against all of these ideas. In 2010, The Accelerated Dragon remains an excellent counter to 1 e4. basic types of mates, motifs and tactical possibilities.
