Royal road to becoming a successful card magician. 8 of 8 Ciao Users found the following review helpful
Rating from adypunk 4 Stars ()

Advantages Many sleights covered and includes tricks to use your new skills.

Disadvantages Illustrations could be improved

This book has been refered to as the bible of card magic.
I bought this book about a year ago as a beginner to learn some new techniques and tricks. It covers a fantastic array of sleights and manipulations to use in developing your own magic.

This book has been written to be worked through from beginning to end, it covers a new sleight with each chapter and then features a handful of tricks which involve the sleight. The book also includes illustrations to aid you in correct handling.

The book is aimed for newbies of sleight of hand card magic, however there are a lot of tricks and sleights featured so even a more confident magician may find this book an aid.

I would recomment this book only if you want to fully develop yourself as a card magician, a lot of the things featured requires some substantial practice and not everyone has the patience or the time to dedicate to such as art,
