I didn't care for it at all. Maybe I was expecting something different. As for "meeting the characters from a tournament" I think this ws better done in Mike Lawrences Play Swiss Teams with Mike Lawrence, Play Bridge with Mike Lawrence , and SJ Simons Why You LOse at Bridge.
I found nothing appealing in this book

You will meet a variety of people, many you wont want to associate with. I sure didn't enjoy reading about them in this book. And I didn't care for the story either.

For some good humorous fiction books with a Bridge theme try the Victor Mollo Menagerie or David Birds /terence Reese Monks series.

This book is more than mildly amusing. However, there isn't enough _too_ it. The characters are perhaps not fully fleshed out and the bridge details need a lot more work. Still, it isn't a bad book at all.
