Customer Reviews

Magic rule book, great information.

This book is an amazing introduction to the dawn of magic. 30 years later, this book lets you see how MTG has evolved. I love it. Only had it a few months, but I now keep it close, and use it often.

Outdated. Do Not Buy.

Note that this book came out in 1996, over twenty years ago, and Magic has changed a LOT since then, not only the cards but even some of the rules have been modified, tweaked, and streamlined. There are a lot of good resources online if you're interested in getting into the game; anyone looking to do so in the 21st century would be better served by looking up some of those.

Informative and thurough. Loads of info in a good format!

This book has lots of infofmation on the game "Magic The Gathering" wich is a cool and addictive card game. This book teaches you about the game and how to build a deck from a point of veiw of a player. It gives lots of examples on how to do the things it is trying to explain. The ilustrations are very useful. I recomend this book to anyone who is wanting to learn the game, however keep in mind this game is full of rules that change the rules so dont take the info in this book as law just use it as a foundation for your rules. Happy gameing!
