Synopsis
The Center Counter can be aggressive and dangerous. It immediately challenges White from the get-go (1. e4 d5!) and it is making a comeback! Because of Andrew Martin's 2... Qxd5, the Center Counter also doesn't require a mountain of memorization nor knowledge to learn it and use it.
In 10 chapters you are guided through declined and accepted variations. Transpositional variations from non-CC games such as the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit are not just investigated, they are taken apart.
36 games are annotated in the friendly style that Andrew Martin is known for—his writing makes you want to play this system!
