War Magician was something that Weir was attached to, but pulled out when there were severe allegations against the book\’s truthfulness.

there\’s a book called the \”War Magician\”, about a Magician called Jasper Maskelyne, who did just that for the British in North Africa.

I\’m sure that they don\’t have the rights to that, (I think Tom Cruise does), but I\’m guessing it\’s pretty much the same story.

I wonder if the Coen brothers are still attached to “The Yiddish Policeman’s Union” that was supposed to be their next movie. They could probably make the movie better than the book, I always get the impression that in his novels he failed to accomplish his own ambition. But the show concept is great, HBO is having a great time.
