A Really Good Book
6 April 2002
Format:Paperback
This is a very good book for anyone who does not want to put in the hours it takes to become a sleight-of-hand card magician. Many of the effects in this book come from a magazine that was published by the author, which is considered one of the greatest sources for magical material ever!
Many of the effects in the book require no skill, just a careful management of your audience and attention to detail. Most will fool knowledgable magicians, especially those who depend on sleights and not mathematics.
An excellent book for a beginning magician, but not for those who are under 12, since most of the material requires strict adherence to directions.
Check out the last chapter for some excellent routines that duplicate sleight-of-hand magic, but don't use it.

A great little book at a great little price
16 Sep 2005
Format:Paperback
Don't know why anyone would have trouble understanding or using the effects in this book. Frankly, with a little bit of presentation and performance, these are some nice workers. Magicians who perform for a living know Fulves' material is strong. True, his style is a bit dry, but no problem for someone with good reading skils.

Not very good
21 Jan 2006
Format:Paperback
Out of the sixty-five tricks listed in the book, I found about ten that were worth attempting. I like to do tricks on a spur of the moment with a borrowed deck, and this book added very little to my repetoire. There are too many tricks which need a setup or require you to mark cards beforehand. Also, alot of the tricks have too many steps (your audience will get bored, just as mine did). My final say is don't buy this book, it's not worth it; get a good sleight-of-hand video instead.
