ReviewIn summary this is an excellent book providing a complete repertoire for black against 1.d4, 1.Nf3 & 1.c4 It contains a lot of original analysis and sound recommendations. Although this opening may not be considered to be totally sound at GM level it is perfectly playable at Club level. Tony Williams, January 5 2020, BRITISH CHESS NEWS.ReviewThe Modernized Reti offers cutting-edge variations, sharp analysis with ample novelties, pleasant text, a knowledgeable author who practices what he preaches and a full repertoire. You can't ask for much more than that! GM Glean Flear NIC YB 2018The Modernized Reti: the focus is on sound, strong and interesting opening ideas and further plans, rather than on giving complete games.I have no hesitation in warmly recommending The Modernized Reti to you; after all, I am already finding it to be really useful myself!
