Dangerous Weapons is my favorite series on chess openings. The goal is "moves that create complex original positions full of razor-sharp tactics and rich positional ideas where creative, attacking play is rewarded . . . moves which are new, rare or very fresh . . . moves that are highly ambitious, ones which aim for total domination . . . moves that have been previously ignored, discarded or discredited . . . moves that are visually shocking." And that is exactly what you get in this examination of the Pirc and the Modern openings with that game plan in mind. Just chock full of dangerous moves that lead to explosive games. I've tried many of these ideas and they lead to wild and fun play. Really great ideas if you want to blow an opponent out of their book.
