2.0 out of 5 stars
Rough edition,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dominoes: Basic Rules & Variations (Paperback)
I am not sure if there was a translation error, bad print run, etc... but watch out for typos and other errors in this book. Learning a new game becomes even more challenging when the diagrams do not match up and the text is wrong.

2.0 out of 5 stars
A decent overview, but errs on at least one specific game.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dominoes: Basic Rules & Variations (Paperback)
My specific goal with this book was to find information about the famous Texas domino game of "42," so I was primarily interested in that section of the book. Its attempt to teach that game is inconsistent with the known guidelines and strategies played in Texas 42, so be careful if that is your interest in this book. If so, a comprehensive new book solely on the domino game of "42" is available from amazon.com - "Winning 42: Strategy & Lore of the National Game of Texas."

Hard to read and full of errors,
This review is from: Dominoes: Basic Rules & Variations (Paperback)
It boggles the mind how a book publisher can put out a book with so many typos and mistakes. Since the author's name looks German maybe the problem was in the translation process. After struggling with this book for a week I went back and purchased Jennifer A. Kelley's Great Book of Domino Games... what a difference. My advice is don't waste your time or money on Muller's book. Buy Kelley's book (her book is a pleasure to read).
