The Caro-Kann Defense remains a very popular option for Black at all levels of chess. It has always enjoyed a solid reputation, but if anything its popularity has increased in recent years with the realization that the Caro-Kann can also be employed with the intention of reaching sharp dynamic positions, rich in possibilities for both sides and with a guarantee of genuine counterplay for Black. In this book, International Master Jovanka Houska presents the reader with a complete Caro-Kann repertoire, which is based primarily on her own repertoire she has used with success over many years at international level. Houska provides a comprehensive update on her popular 2007 book Play the Caro-Kann and focuses on key new developments since then. She offers solutions against all of White's main options and efficient methods to deal with tricky sidelines. She examines important tactical and strategic plans for both sides and deals with key move order issues. This book tells you everything you need to know about playing the Caro-Kann.

By BrillatSavarin The Caro has been my primary weapon against 1.e4 for almost a decade and it has served me well, so well in fact I'd rather play black and face 1. e4 than play white or play against anything else.Jovanka Houska put out a great Caro-Kann book for Everyman in 2007, and this book is largely an update of her previous work. That being said, what an enormous and excellent update it is. The first book was a slim volume of 208 pages, and this repertoire edition is 480 pages. Houska's one of the best opening writers in Everyman's stable because she doesn't just overwhelm you with variations (though there are plenty of those), rather she takes you through typical pawn structures, tabiyas, dangerous pawn pushes from the opponents, thematic counter attacks of your own etc.In her last book she introduced the Caro audience to an alternative way to play against the advance, after 3. e5, then c5! To be fair both Peter Wells and Joe Gallagher gave this variation a cursory examination in their books, but in this new edition, Houska has devoted three chapters to it. It's a good line, played often by British GM Keith Arkell and somewhat unorthodox as most people are used to facing 3. … Bf5.In this edition she has completely changed her original assessments on how to play against the Panov, and how to play against the 11.Bd2 Classical variation. In the Panov four knights, she's going for an early g6, and she now says that the 11. Bd2 Classical is more dangerous for the black player than once thought.I'm not going to go through every new update, but one thing I like a lot about this book that's better than the last is the hundreds of hints, memory devices, and formulas peppered throughout the book. I don't have a great memory myself, and these signposts greatly increase the chance that I'll know what to do even if I can't remember an exact move.This is a full repertoire against 1. e4. Yes you may come across a few things from club players not in here. 1. e4 c6 2. Bc4 comes to mind, but of those tries, most are insipid and you should be able to work out proper replies yourself.A word of warning though; this edition is not the breezy guide she issued in 2007 and I think it's probably best for 1600+. Also Everyman has done something with this edition I've never seen them do before, they've added elongated folded back and front covers that you can use as book marks. Nice.

I coach now in a set of schools where the Caro-Kann is a staple. A number of my beginning and intermediate students actually read this book - an accomplishment with younger players who are averse to reading. I have used the earlier version for years and recommend the update.

The Caro-Kann) and this is an update but with better explanations and updated information By Victor 890 I own her first book (Play The Caro-Kann) and this is an update but with better explanations and updated information. Anyone who is serious about defending against 1) e4 and likes a solid position needs to read this book.
