An award-winning, impromptu, self-working card miracle.

EFFECT: A borrowed deck of cards may be used. A member of the audience predicts something that two other spectators will do before they know what they will do.

Anyone in the audience calls "stop" at any time as you deal off the cards, one by one. This card is not shown but held by anyone, back to the audience, so there can be no switch. Two other persons each take a portion of the remainder of the deck, a free choice. These cards are counted. When the stopped at card is turned around, it is found that it had predicted the totals...

Senor Mardo brings you a complete analysis of the manipulation, routining, and presentation of that magical classic, The Cups and Balls. Seven beautiful routines devoted to classic close-up and night club magic effects.

We've wanted to offer this hard-to-find title for years and are now able to do so... and at a price that won't break the bank (originally sold for the equivalent of $35.00 in today's money when first released).

Four complete routines are presented in this book, with more than 30 illustrations:

• One cup routine
• Two cup routine
• Three cup routine
• Mardo's "Impromptu...

What numbers mean to you.

The purpose of this ebook is to give a modern viewpoint on an ancient subject, in a way that will prove interesting and helpful to the reader. It does not seek to establish a new system of philosophy, or to over-emphasize the importance of long-stored knowledge. Instead, it endeavors to acquaint the reader with information that is well worth knowing.

The subject of Numerology does not become technical and involved as one goes further into its study. Instead, each step leads toward a definite objective; the scientific interpretation of numbers and their significance...

From the preface: This little ebook is not jazzy or slick in any way. It is, in fact, a small step up from the scribble in my notebook. However, within its pages one may find reputation makers and religion starters.

This book is not full of amazing new methods. The routines within utilize methods that you (probably) already know. What you are about to read is an application of these methods that will take your audiences to a whole new level.

You should know, before delving in, that my professional/scholastic training is born out of the theatre. I am very theatrical and this is why my audiences...

The best pen-through-bill routine you will find!

(If you are interested only in the first penetration phase you can also buy it separately with Real Pen-Etration for much less. You might also want to check out the same effect achieved with different sleights: Driven by Cameron Francis.)

In late 2003 / early 2004 Misleading Mislead stormed into the magic community and quickly gained its self-critical acclaim. However, the full routine had been trimmed down from a two-phase routine to a one-phase trick by the company who produced it. Alan was very unhappy about this as all the hard work and tested moves that took...

Stephen Tucker is probably one of the craziest people you will ever meet in magic. He may be crazy but he also happens to be highly talented and a very creative person. He has invented many magic effects and has supported himself over the years by performing magic, inventing magic tricks and editing and producing magic magazines. He was the editor and publisher of the amazing Spell-Binder Magazine.

Chicanery is a worthy successor to Spell-Binder and most of the effects within its pages are by Stephen. He gave himself pen names and a typical Tucker touch is that the names are Pen Tell, Mark Erpen, Nick Fountain,...

Create a beautiful moment—sometime later down the track. Yes, the day will come when you will stand back to the sun, open your "third eye" and pop a hole in your head!

Be patient, grasshopper.

The softcover edition includes a DVD.

This is the audio-book version of The MagiCIAn: John Mulholland's Secret CIA Life. Listening time over 9 hours. The author, Ben Robinsion, reads the entire book. Additionally he also reads ten letters to and from Mulholland previously unpublished and not part of the book or ebook. Here is the first half of the first chapter:

"John Mulholland is surely one of the most fascinating personalities in magic history. For his work to advance conjuring as a recognized art, he deserves tremendous respect, and no serious student of magic will want to skip this book." - Michael Claxton, Magic Magazine, Feb 2009.
