New In Chess Magazine 2012 1
Vi behøver vel knapt si annet enn at her er enda et flott nummer av verdens ledende og mest leseverdige og severdige sjakktidsskrift.
Her er det som vanlig glitrende lesestoff for flere timer, selv uten å ta fram brikker og brett. Kramnik er på alle måter i fokus denne gang. I dette nummeret fanger ellers Sosonkos artikkel om den store Petrosjan straks interesse.
Vi har til enhver tid også mange av de tidligere nummerne inne. Alt sammen fantastisk stoff for sjakkinteresserte. Store ord, men det er faktisk dekning for dem.
