Well, how about that? My new book Playing Cards: The Complete Guide to 52 Games, 52, Tricks and 52 Skills is out this month. At least it’s out in the US according to Barnes & Noble’s web site. More news when I get it, but I wanted to flag this up to anyone who’s looking for late summer gift or early back to school present (or indeed anyone who has $9.98 in their pocket). It’s pretty much as described in the title and has some nice, easy-to-follow step by step instructions that explain how everything works. Details to follow.
