Quantum Reality by Paul A. Lelekis

15 monster effects and 8 videos. 14 major effects with cards, coins, gambling themes, mentalism, silks, predictions...and 8 brain busters.

Introduction - discussing a philosophy of "tried and true" performance that just might change your mind...and it works.

What is quantum reality? - You may not be interested in Quantum Physics...but this may open up your mind.

The Magic Effects. Quantum Quickies:

Quantum Optical Triumph - A Triumph effect that will make their heads spin...and it's very easy to do. Just watch the video.

She Has Quantum Power - Give your spectator a power that she didn't realize she had - and so easy to do. (If you perform professionally, this effect will fatten your pockets.)

Quantum Numbers - The spectator does all the work - but the outcome is still impossible.

Quantum Juice To Silk - This is total eye-candy.

Quantum Greatness - This has the "flavor" of a Dani DaOrtiz effect. The performer brags of his gambling skills - yet the spectator beats the performer... and badly - Hilarious!

Quantum Marked Card - A great display of skill. But none needed. Has the "flavor" of Red-Hot Mama.

Quantum Mentalism - This will drop jaws - guaranteed - so very easy to do with something you already own.

Quantum Quickie, Quickie - Here is one of those fast moving effects that will have everyone laughing out loud.

Quantum Quarks And Quirks:

Quantum Coins Across - Are you looking for a great coin routine that you can confidently perform every single...and ends with a huge kicker. This is it!

Quantum Card-(H)istry - A beautiful routine that will get standing ovations...it is just that good.

Quantum Match Game - A fabulous effect by Robert Harbin (creator of the famous Zig-Zag Lady illusion)

Quantum Ultimate Prohesy - Two brilliant concepts of magic, combined into one beautiful...one of Paul's favorites. This easy-to-do effect is impossible to figure out.

Quantum Out-To-Lunch Phenomena - A brilliant idea for a mentalism routine...and an idea for the use of Frixion Pens.

Quantum Pretzel Logic - A mentalism routine that is absolutely brilliant...and easy to do. You'll love this idea.

Bonus: For fun...included are 8 real brain-busters that will "open your mind". Answers included.

1st edition 2020, PDF 63 pages, videos 10 min.

[I am a colleague of Paul and received this ebook free of charge.]

If you are new to the work of Paul Lelekis, I assure you that you will invest in a spectrum of routines tried-and-tested and relevant for your audiences. Quantum Reality, follows on the enthusiastic wavelength of Lelekis's previous written library of over-50 books (which is enormously impressive and prolific even for a magic author). Admittedly, I read his book in 'packets': I started with his Introduction Essay, the table of contents, and then the 8 Brain-Fryers (I got a good buzz) at the conclusion. Thereafter, I read and played with the effects present in random order. Like the concepts in quantum mechanics, Lelekis made the mechanics of card sleight-of-hand and magic principles within achievable reach (his instructional videos are illuminatingly clear), and by presenting any of his energetic pieces of strange - you may make a quantum leap in your audience impact and interaction!

[I have received a review copy of Paul's ebook. Here is my review.]

Quantum Reality is Paul A. Lelekis' latest ebook. Paul has taken full advantage of this Covid mess and utilized his time well. Most of Paul's ebooks are in the twenty to thirty page length .. but THIS one is over sixty pages and includes 14 effects and a couple of valuable 'lessons'.

Paul is a simmering pool of magic knowledge, having spent many years as a professional performer. He has worked tables for thousands upon thousands of customers and righly deserves a platform to talk about what's inportant .. and what to avoid.. at the table. Not everything is strictly close-up or walk around magic. Some can be performed for small crowds in a parlour setting, depending on your situation.

I'll tell you straight up.. I consider this ebook to be for the advanced beginner to intermediate performer. It's not for the beginner. Although Paul is well known for writing effects for every level of performer, he has put considerable thought into QUANTUM REALITY and created a treatise of considerable worth. ( 'Treatise' is one of my favorite words, and is described as "..a written work dealing formally and systematically with a subject." QR is exactly that...)

** I'm not going to call QR a 'formal' work.. as Paul has a very easy and relaxed way of explaining an effect, but it IS a total work, since he goes into great detail to explain some of the finer points.. and includes three videos to better explain the most difficult or lesser known moves.

This is a full list of the effects Paul teaches in detail:

- QUANTUM OPTICAL TRIUMPH - - SHE HAS QUANTUM POWER - - QUANTUM NUMBERS - - QUANTUM JUICE TO SILK - - QUANTUM GREATNESS – - QUANTUM MARKED CARD – - QUANTUM MENTALISM - - QUANTUM QUICKIE, QUICKIE - QUANTUM QUARKS AND QUIRKS - QUANTUM COINS ACROSS - - QUANTUM CARD-(H)ISTRY – - QUANTUM MATCH GAME - - QUANTUM ULTIMATE PROHESY - - QUANTUM OUT-TO-LUNCH PHENOMENA - - QUANTUM PRETZEL LOGIC -

Aside from the detailed Introduction.. Paul also included 8 brain-busters at the end of the ebook to either make you feel superior to the rest of us.. or a little inferior! Either way, they're a nice bonus.

I particularly liked Quantum Qptical Triumph, which ends with all the cards face down.. except the four Aces.. which are still face up in the deck. Quantum Numbers finds a spectator's selection using two 'random' cards. Quantum Juice To Silk is a good change of pace from the card work and very visually produces a red silk from a red liquid. Perfect for young and old. Quantum Greatness is a gambler's bet.. except the gambler is bested by the spectator although both have four excellent cards. Quantum Marked Card is a nice transformation effect where a spectator's card changes from a red back to a blue back in a quick and visual way. Quantum Mentalism uses an Invisible Deck to pull off a simplistic, but effective, stunner. Quantum Coins Across is Paul's version of Coins Across for those of you coin guys who feel 'sleighted' by all the card effects. Quantum Card-(H)istry is definitely one of the most complex effects in this ebook, but well worth the extra effort. It's based on a 'History of playing cards' premise with a side of Tarot cards for good measure..

I think these descriptions give you a good idea of the cross section of magic in Quantum Reality. There's something for everyone. For those of you still recovering from social isolation and anxious to 'get to it'.. this is a wonderful way to expand your repertoire and open your mind to new ideas. It has my full recommendation.. for sure.

Quantum Reality by Paul Lelekis is the bargain of summer 2020! Packed with great material that’s enjoyable to perform and sure to please your audience as well. The book features 14 terrific effects plus some very cool little brain-busters that are perfect little attention getters. As with all of Paul’s books, Quantum Reality starts with an introduction that is well worth the price of the book! Here you’ll find some solid tips and advice on using a humble approach to your presentations as a way to keep your spectators relaxed and entertained. Straight-forward suggestions from an experienced professional. The routines within are really terrific and there is lots of variety here too. Demo videos are included to assist with learning the moves and principles. Cards, coins, silk, plus a very nice routine using a common utility device and a routine using a classic mentalism principle. I particularly enjoyed working through Quantum Coins Across and Quantum Ultimate Prophesy. All of the routines are presented in an uncomplicated manner with clean handlings to ensure a smooth presentation for your spectators. Within these effects, you’ll learn no less than 10 very useful moves, principles, controls, forces, shifts, coin vanish, and passes. All of which can of course be utilized into many other effects. It’s so nice to have all these great moves available in one book. A fabulous reference and a great collection of time-tested routines that you will return to many times.
