Synopsis
The cult world of darts is having a real moment and is now spilling into mainstream culture, with the success of teenage sensation Luke 'The Nuke' Littler being a huge part of this. Following a strict regimen of kebabs, cans of Monster and hours of playing FIFA, he has reached the pinnacle of his sport at the age of 17 -cementing his place in the hearts of the great British public and taking pride of place in the headlines of news bulletins.
The Little(r) Book of Darts is a celebration of the working man's javelin, packed full of trivia, quizzes and games that embodies the drama, humour, fun and downright chaos that is at the very heart of the darts experience. Covering everything from Bullseye, the link between Dexy's Midnight Runners and Jocky Wilson, how Michael van Gerwin lost his hair, the real reason Gerwyn Price wears industrial-sized ear defenders and what to wear to impress your boss when they catch you chugging a jug of beer in the crowd, this is the embodiment of the magic that these highly trained athletes bring to the oche day after day.
