As a result, some parents are ok with that.  "As long as the

Thanks for the explanation.

The cards don't seem readily available, but there are some  
novels bearing the Magic (tm) logo reminiscent of D&D, and  
there are several recent books that cover the history of the  
graphics art.

Sorry..  never heard of this. But I *have* heard of the company  
Wizards of the Coast which put out some books of the genre.
