Two dynamic Everyman Chess books in one volume: Play the Accelerated Dragon by Peter Lalić and Play the Benko Gambit by Nicolai Pedersen.

A complete Black repertoire against both 1 e4 and 1 d4 – built for fighting players who want active, unbalanced positions from move one.

Play the Accelerated Dragon – Peter Lalić
The Accelerated Dragon is one of Black’s most popular Sicilian choices. Pieces develop quickly to active squares, and the greater flexibility compared to the traditional Dragon means White’s Yugoslav Attack loses much of its sting. GM Lalić presents a reliable system focused on clear plans and swift counterplay, showing why the Accelerated Dragon is a weapon for life.

Play the Benko Gambit – Nicolai Pedersen
The Benko Gambit is one of Black’s most dynamic openings against 1 d4. A pawn investment buys long-term queenside pressure that often carries right into the endgame. GM Pedersen covers the critical main lines, tricky sidelines, and all of White’s attempts to avoid the Benko – giving you a complete, practical repertoire.

Good to have if you've never seen the iTEP exam, but don't rely on it to boost your scores
Format: Paperback
This book is good in that it comes with two practice tests: one in the beginning of the book, one in the end of the book. The grading rubric is helpful too. However, the actual guide part of the book, doesn't help too much with how to improve test scores. What I like least about this guide is that it won't tell you which questions you answered incorrectly on the practice exams. A good test prep guide will tell you what you answered incorrectly, and will tell you what logic to follow to get to the correct answer. In the reading passages, it would be nice to know where I can find evidence to justify the "correct" answer. In the grammar section, it would be nice to know which rule I'm violating. Any test guide should always come with some testing strategies. I.E. If this question is taking up too much time, skip it and go to the next one. This guide lacks simple strategies like that. Simple strategies like that could be useful when incorporated into this guide because there are certain sections on the exam that you can go back to previous questions, but some sections where the "back" button is disabled. Overall, if you've never seen an iTEP exam before, this book is certainly helpful in that it will give you an idea of what you will be testing for. However, this book alone won't help you achieve a score of 6. The table of contents itself will tell you there are only 86 pages of actual content covering test material. That's not enough to cover how to excel in the exam.

Don't buy it
Format: Paperback
It does not prepare for the real test. Using it is absolutely not enough to be approved with good grades. Too expensive for what it offers.
