Customer Reviews

Would give it a 3 1/2 but gave it the benefit

This bok is great book for starters! I really do recomend it for starters. Other than that its an ok book. You can master the book in 3-4 days, and a magic book should last much much much longer. I do however recomend this book for people who are intrested in starting card magic.

Good book on card magic!

This is not an excellent book, but it's not a bad book either. It's a good book: it contains tricks for you who doesn't know sleight of hand and for you who knows it. The self-working tricks contained here are not dumb, they do have that great climax too. You'll also find some tricks that require gimmicked decks, such as the Stripper Deck, but most of them only require a normal deck and/or usual props such as a rubber band. If you look for some classic tricks but not the one's shown on TV, you'll be happy to own this book.

Unique card magic!!

This book has a wealth of information on card handling and technique. There are many top notch card effects including some different and offbeat tricks. Charles Jordan was definetely a card genius and you will see why in the way his card magic is done. A must have!

A Treasure Chest of Card Magic

Many of the illusions in the book are from Charles Jordan's own hand. Mr. Fulves adds notes to the end of several tricks. This book is a must own. If you buy only ONE book on cards, this is going to be your bible. It is rarely seen
