Darts? What a Laugh!

By Ivan Brackin

An entertaining novel centered around Britain's most popular indoor sport. Okay, perhaps the second most popular sport. Probably the only humour book written on the game, with lots of incidents that will be familiar to anyone who has been around the pub scene.
Under the guiding hand of his canny old grandpa Kerry sets off to
conquer the world of darts. And finds out that the climb up is not as easy as he thought. But he has a lot of fun trying.
Both players and non-players will enjoy this book. Beginners
will certainly benefit from lots of tips from old-timers. It is packed with original cartoons from the pen of the author and
his late wife.

Ivan Brackin

Born in Cheshire, England, in l941. Left those sunny 'hic' shores in l963 to drive to Australia. Should have bought a map. Made it to Karachi and eventually by foot and boat to Japan where I started a small ad agency. Wrote ad copy for 35 years and typed out about a dozen or more books on an IBM Selectric. Mostly humor accompanied by my cartoons. Discovered computers two years ago and now converting dusty manuscripts to the books the world has been denied for thirty years, using the marvelous opportunity presented by Smashwords.Now retired on a small island called Yoron. Enjoy gardening, messing about with a boat, writing, Googling, golf on a sweet little nine holer, par 27 , and ogling at the marvelous sea.
