Disappointing read I bought this book hoping to learn a few tricks to baffle my mates down the pub, it is really disappointing. The best thing about it is the cover, which is covered in black felty material. Obviously that is where all the money was spent and not on the editing. The writing style is annoying and takes ages to cut to the chase, obviously trying to pad out the book with waffle to make it seem more value for money. If that wasn't bad enough, the tricks aren't really what i expected either. Quite lame... more info
Misleading title Its a good beginner's magic book. A little hokie. No real mind magic (a la Darren Brown). I think most reviews hit the mark.
Don't judge a book by it's cover (or it's name) I bought this book hoping that there would be some kind of psychological elements to it, along the Derren Brown style of tricks. I was out of luck. The book is just another magic book where every trick requires props that you wouldn't usually carry around. If that's what you want then it's probably not a bad book to get, but if you are looking for something a little bit different, you won't find it here.
rubbish Bought this book and i believe that the author write this book together over a weekend. Waste of time and money
