Tibor Karolyi & Nick Aplin cover in this second volume the last significant phases of Garry Kasparov’s chess career with the period that lead up to his title defence against Vladimir Kramnik,and unfortunately his chess retirement in 2005.
Both authors give as reason for his retirement; He probably realized he could not arrange a re match with Kramnik.He was was also no longer immune to the blight of mediocre play.He seemed to have less energy for chess work. Some voices had been criticizing his level of privilege in the chess world, especially his retention of the number one ranking in a period of little active play. Probably the greatest factor was the difficulty in standing the tension; as the last game proved, Gary was no longer able to cope with the stress consistently.
But I still belive Garry Kasparov belongs to the greatest player of modern time.
But back to the games in this book again there is a full coverage of 77 complete games and unfortnatly some game extracts, where the annotations to the games are really very extensive and both authors have made excellent use of move to move annotations.
For example please see game 66 and I would like to show you the first moves of the game between Kasparov and the talented Jobava played at Rethymnon,2003;
1.e4 Garry’s opponent is an excellent theoretician. One year later at the Calvia Olympiad,where he attainted an incredible high Elo performance, he was to produce one of the most stunning novelties ever seen.That was in his game with white against Kualots,which started with white against Kualots,which started with a Slav.Up to this point in his career,with the black pieces,Jobava had played the Najdorf and the King’s Indian almost exclusively. Garry doesn’t test him in the latter,even through at one stage it was his own main weapon against 1.d4.
1…c6?! Jobava tries the Caro-Kann for the first time in his life.Usually he plays the Najdorf,answering 6.Be3 with 6…Ng4 and 6.f3 with 6…b5.He decides not subject his Sicilian line to the severest test.Garry had started by playing the Bf5 Caro-Kann and than switched to the Najdorf.Jobava’s devolpment is the reverse.
2.d4 d5 3.e5 Most probaly Garry not know what his opponent would play in the main line or in the Panov.Against Anand at Linares a few months earlier he had acquired a small edge from 3.Nd2 {see game 63},but that might not have satisfided him against a lower rated player.
This way the reader can easy see hoe well loaded this book is with instructive and readable text!
Conclusion: Buy it for the heavy analyses!

Das Buch enthält 77 Turnierpartien von Garry Kasparow, des wohl stärksten Schachspielers bis zum heutigen Tag, von 1999 bis 2005, darunter auch einige Schnellpartien. Unter seinen Gegnern finden wir die derzeit Besten der Welt wie Adams, Anand, Grischuk, Iwantschuk, Kramnik, Leko, Morosewitsch, Polgar, Ponomarjow, Schirow, Swidler und Topalow. Die Analysen sind sehr tief, erstrecken sich meist über viele Seiten und werden durch zahlreiche Diagramme verdeutlicht. Damit ist über die hohe Qualität des Buches eigentlich alles gesagt. Turniertabellen sind nicht vorhanden, aber viel Text zwischen den Partien lässt die Ereignisse lebendig werden.
Die Verfasser Tibor Karolyi und Nick Aplin denken, dass ihr Buch von allen Schachfreunden mit Gewinn studiert werden kann. Sicherlich werden aber Fortgeschrittene mit englischen Sprachkenntnissen daraus Nutzen ziehen. Von den gleichen Autoren gibt es übrigens auch eine Sammlung von Kasparow-Partien aus der Zeit von 1993 bis 1998, ebenfalls bei Batsford erschienen.
