Everyone believed that when Victor Mollo died, the chance of any more books featuring the Hideous Hog, the Rueful Rabbit and their friends died with him. Now, many of Mollo's later Menagerie articles have been turned into book form by Robert and Phillip King, co-authors with Mollo of Winning Bridge in the Menagerie. The reader will recognise many of the characters from their own bridge experiences. Walter the Walrus is still wondering why his points are not as good as anyone else's, Karapet, the unluckiest man since Job, savours every piece of bad luck, and Papa continues to dazzle and deceive, even if it is usually his partner that is misled.
