Librarian vs. Reader: Magic the Gathering Cards
Librarian: I don't know how well this book would fit in many libraries. On the one hand public libraries in particular do have a need to stock things like collector price guides. The thing is they don't always circulate that well, even for really popular collectibles, so that can make the decision to purchase them a bit iffy.
Still, I know that there's been a big push to get Magic into libraries, whether through clubs or events, so perhaps this book would be valuable to librarians for that purpose.
Reader: I do not play Magic. Nor really do I have any interest in playing Magic. But my brother-in-law does play casually, so I passed this book to him. He found it interesting, but determined that Magic really does have too many cards at this point.
