Pojo's Magic Book Reviews
Magic Cards Simplified - For Player Parents and Beginners of Magic: The Gathering. - By George Baxter.This was one of the first books I ever bought. At the time, I was looking to teach my daughter the game, and this one obviously caught my eye. This book was published in 1997. It is written by George Baxter. It is sized at 6"x 9", and 125 p. This is one of thee books to get if you are a beginner and want to learn how to properly play M:TG. The book tells you the minimum cards to buy when getting started (start off with at least 2 starter packs, and 5 boosters), how to separate your cards, and make a fairly competitive first deck. They then walk you nicely through all the phases of game play, and play through a complete game (twice, once from each player's perspective - this will be nice for a beginner). Then the book goes on to tell you how to build 15 different decks from inexpensive cards. If you can find it, this book is only like $7.00. If you are just starting to learn, I highly recommend this book. This book can also help a beginner prepare for a sealed deck tourney by showing you how to separate, sort, and evaluate your cards properly. This book is tough to find. Amazon.com sometimes has links to used bookstores that carry it. Check Amazon.com for availability. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to e-mail us at BookReviews@pojo.com. If a book isn't reviewed here yet, then I have yet to purchase it. If you are an author or publisher, and want me to review one of your books. Feel free to mail me a copy.
