King’s Indian Attack by Ken Smith and John Hall is a practical repertoire guide focused on the King’s Indian Attack (KIA) system, a flexible opening setup that White can use against a wide range of Black defenses.
The book explains the core setup—typically involving Nf3, g3, Bg2, d3, Nbd2, and e4—and shows how this structure can be adapted depending on Black’s responses.
Smith and Hall emphasize typical attacking plans rather than deep theory, highlighting how White builds kingside pressure and central control with a consistent piece formation.
It covers key strategic themes such as slow buildup attacks, kingside pawn storms, central breakthroughs, and maneuvering play, making it accessible and practical for real games.
The material includes annotated examples and model games, demonstrating how the same setup can lead to different tactical and positional outcomes.
A strong resource for club players and practical competitors, especially those who prefer a universal, easy-to-learn attacking system against many Black defenses.
Condition: Good condition, Likely New.
