It seems the killer sicilian is alive, despite sveschnikov's loss.

Seems a bit pricy, but I suppose the time machine has to be paid for somehow...

The book looks very interesting especially the anti-sicilian part since I play every line of it A pity to wait so long...

Nada yet, will keep everyone in the loop.

Interesting line - never seen it, as I prefer 4...g6!?.

Taking a look in my database, there have been two games, which I've posted below. I'd be happy to take Black after 11...h6 (which seems nearly forced) in both an OTB or Correspondence game, but I have little regard for king safety!

Objectively White probably has enough for the pawn/exchange that will fall after ...Nxc2 though - note that this opinion is based on 10 or 15 minutes of noodling around in Chessbase, not an extensive investigation into the massive complications that are about to break out!

If anyone was curious about the recommendations covered in the book, here they are, by chapter (I'm bored at work, and simply need something to take up my time) - page numbers are approximate and taken from the raw manuscript, which may be way off in terms of final count:

b) Why Play the Kalashnikov? (1)
