A Book & a Related Gift - GIFT GUIDE discussion

For any middle grader into Magic: The Gathering or another fantasy role-playing game, especially one with cards.

A copy of this + either a new deck for a game they're already into, or a new game. ;)

I have not read this book myself, but for times when your recipient is not playing games, here's a story about what happens when one of the games spills over its boundaries.

From WorldCat:
When Max Sumner and three friends play a magical card game called Round Table, they realize that it is up to them to prevent the wicked creatures of the cards from destroying their town, indeed, their world.

Both of these would probably fit into a Christmas stocking, too, come to think of it. ;)
