Praise for Martin Limón “Limón has proven himself to be a sensitive observer of the darker angels of human nature and a skilled weaver of mystery.” —NPR “Limón’s crisp, clear storytelling opens a door to another world.” —The Baltimore Sun “Limón is one of the best military writers ever. His stories are addictive entertainment today—and valuable slices of history tomorrow.” —Lee Child “God bless Martin Limón for reinstating gambling as one of America’s great vices. Strip Rules’s menagerie of card cheats, ex-military wing nuts, and connivers manages to mark a win for humanity. Limón’s latest is more fun than cheating at solitaire, and with a bigger payoff. Strip Rules has it all in spades.” —Ed Lin, author of The Dead Can't Make a Living “There's a ton of blackjack in here, and it's accurate... It’s really cool... Those are all the things we did.” —Anthony Curtis, Las Vegas Advisor
