"When it comes to chess, I've only ever had one role model, Albin Planinc. I knew of his troubles, I knew he was one of those unlucky few, chess geniuses who remained sidelined, forgotten. Among those, who crossed the thin line between genius and madness, that invisible line that took many chess geniuses, not merely Planinc.
Who knows what would have happened if Planinc had managed to hold on for a few more years. His real career only ever lasted five short years, in which time he has left us much. He ran out of time to compete for prestigious titles, he ran out of time to unravel the mysteries of certain forgotten openings with his moves. What was left were games. Readers will quickly find these games were in no way ordinary. They are full of energy, riddled with fantastic excitement, so much of what is considered wonderful in chess. The are games to be immortalised, games of the Slovene Chess Mozart." (the author)
