Summary

A magnet for bullies at school, Jon Finkel grew up heckled and hazed until he discovered the cult trading-card game 'Magic: The Gathering'. As Magic exploded from obsession to mainstream media the teenage Finkel emerged as its first world champion. This work includes a cast of characters rife with aces, kings, knaves, and a few jokers.
