Alternate Worlds is a Magic: the Gathering memoir written by Brian Schneider, one of the game's early R&D leads, about the fun and merit of growing up a gamer. <p/>Consider Alternate Worlds a love letter to Magic: the Gathering, to gamers, and to anyone who woke up one day and thought, "I miss my friends." <p/>The book itself is a "Magic deck" of sixty short, delightful, stories -- all tales about lessons learned along the way. <p/>All profits from Alternate Worlds will be donated periodically to nonprofit organizations of the highest need. <p/>This book is part of a larger creative universe, including the Alternate Worlds podcast and ongoing behind-the-scenes insights shared on YouTube.
