All of Lubor Fiedler's released tricks, plus his story of life, plus more.
Lubor Fiedler was the most creative magic trick inventor of all time. There is no comparison. He introduced so many new principles, concepts, and ideas into magic that it took me 20 years to create this record of his achievements. Many will be familiar with his astounding Tenyo releases, but that is merely the tip of the iceberg of his creations. It is hard to overstate his achievements. Lubor's Gozinta Boxes is to this day something I look at and marvel at. It is so simple but at the same time so amazing, the true sign of a genius.
I was fortunate that I not only had Lubor's personal help in this endeavor, but many of his closest friends and confidantes contributed as well, such as Mark Setteducati, Werner Liebig, Hiroshi Kondo, and Michael Hitzel, just to name a few.
"This book has been many years in the making and is a great contribution to the art of magic, as Lubor Fiedler truly is one of the greatest inventors in the history of magic. ... Lubor Fiedler was the only person I've met who could invent tricks with new principles on demand." - Mark Setteducati
"I can only say that we were extremely lucky to have been able to meet Lubor around the world for 20 years and see his smiling face and live performances. Each time, we experienced the magicians' greatest joy of being shown a trick that we couldn't figure out no matter how many times we saw it, and as the second greatest joy, we were amazed by the genius idea of the trick when it was explained." - Hiroshi Kondo
"I think that Lubor Fiedler was rightly included in the exclusive circle of personalities such as Terri Rogers, Robert Neale, Stewart James, Bob Hummer, and Jerry Andrus, who with a special gift were able to break out of established patterns of thought and developed incredible feats of magic with those ideas." - Reinhard Müller
It is impossible to capture his impact on magic in just a few sentences. That is why I have written and compiled this 500+ page book. In terms of number and variety of principles, methods, and ideas, by a single creator, this book is unsurpassed by anything else ever published in magic. Incorporated in this book are two German publications by Lubor Fiedler that Bill Palmer expertly translated. It also includes every lecture note, magazine contribution, and trick description of his marketed tricks.
