Book Overview

All magicians need a variety of card tricks for their acts, especially the spur-of-the-moment kind that can be performed without any special sleight of hand. In this outstanding new collection, an expert magician presents step-by-step, foolproof instructions for 65 of his most impressive card tricks, guaranteed to work flawlessly and to impress and delight audiences.
No special dexterity is required to master such mystifying and entertaining illusions as "Prediction Wallet," in which the card a spectator has chosen and signed turns up in the magician's wallet; "Magnetic Force," a trick that uses a "magnetized" card to find the mates to a pair of target cards; "Cupid's Hotline," in which an audience member telephones a psychic and the latter identifies the card in the former's hand; or "Suspense," which dangles a card in midair.
Each trick is clearly explained and illustrated, and many include patter and presentation suggestions. Magicians at all levels, beginner to expert, amateur to professional, will prize this collection of surefire tricks by one of the masters of card magic. 116 black-and-white illustrations.

A great little book at a great little price

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.

A Really Good Book

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.
