Many on this board have been curious about the Leo Boudreau books I've mentioned, but disappointed about how near-impossible they are to find.
Great News!!!! Lybrary.com has managed to track down Leo Boudreau, and has obtained permission to reprint "Psimatrika", "Skullduggery" and "Spirited Pasteboards" as e-books!
It may be a little while, as Lybrary.com has a full plate, but even if these don't show up as e-books until this time next year, it's much sooner than "never".
Just thought you would enjoy the great news!!!

This is indeed very good news.
I tried to order them from Magic Inc. but they are out of stock.

I just happened to chance by this post, and as of today (Nov. 18/2003), lybrary.com doesn't seem to have anything by Leo Boudreau. Anyone have any idea where else his books might be found?

Considering the work that needs to go into converting these books into electronic form, you probably won't see the Boudreau books at Lybrary.com until well into next year. Perhaps Chris can update us?

Bad news. These books are too good for everyone to have. 
Some extremely good ideas in them!

Darn that lybrary.com!! There goes another $78.00!! (for the three Leo Bourdreau works on one CD).
I then plan to print out the books and take the printed material down to Kinkos and have them spiral-bound with clear acetate front cover and back vinyl cover. Each binding will cost approx $5.50 and if the books don't total too many pages (approx 200), I'll bind the books as a compilation. If the books each consist of many pages (making a compilation too thick or impractical), I'll have them bound separately.
I love printing out e-books and then spiral-binding them. They stay open at the page you are working on and this makes practicing "moves" so much easier. This makes the resulting books real "workers" in and of themselves. And, just a tip for collectors of original books, this is a good way to "save the original" in pristine condition.

Does Leo Boudreau himself visit the Café? He must be very pleased at the appreciation being shown his books these days, on this Forum and elsewhere. Congratulations and thanks to Lybrary.com for this service!
