The amusement rolls on as Skeeve plays his first game of Dragon Poker and wins! He reluctantly agrees to accept a marker, only to learn Markie is a little girl. And this kid might just be enough trouble to tear apart Skeeve’s old friends and new company. Meanwhile, the fairy godfather of the Mob has also sent Skeeve a woman, his niece, to be a moll. (Molls are good for a public image.) Tanda is furious, although Skeeve can not figure out why. With more women trouble than he knows how to handle, the games begin. But who is on which side and what is really going on with these dames? The reader is assured a rollicking good time while figuring it all out!

Best card game ever.

Dragon poker, that is. You should give it a try some time. That is, if you can actually manage to keep track of some of the rules. Anyway, while that may be fun, actually winning a kid as part of a game is not so much fun, at least if you are the ones lumbered with looking after the little brat.

I love these characters. Not as funny, not as much action. If it was longer it would only get an 2.5 stars. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0441484999, Paperback)

Skeeve bluffs his way into a high-stakes game of dragon poker-and wins! But now he's left with Markie, a pint-sized IOU left by a player who went broke. She conjures up a house full of trouble every time she tries to cast a spell. And now the dragon poker champion has challenged Skeeve to a game-with a pot of half a million.
