"Among my favorite effects are an inspired variation on Frank Garcia's 'Wild Card' and a really lovely variation on the 'Split Deck.' I was especially impressed with the generous spirit of the writing here. As the authors share one smart alternative handling after another there is a sense that they are completely focused on you the reader and care deeply about imparting their creative knowledge in as clear, humble and patient a manner as possible. Such a gift!" - Jay Sankey
