It's witty and it's full of wisdom. These are the ramblings of Mark Lewis on Internet forums. Irreverent and funny at times and full of deep thinking about magic and mentalism at other times.
Many incredible anecdotes of his varied life as a fortune teller, magician and hypnotist. In addition to this are techniques described on how to pitch svengali decks, how to do psychic readings, and most important of all how to do magic with showmanship and verve.
Included is a video clip of his legendary svengali deck routine which he has performed all over the world thousands of times plus tips on how to sell the deck.
Further included are a few of his most cherished children's entertainment routines including the fantastic Bongo Hat sequence for which he has become famous among children's entertainers everywhere. This routine alone is worth the price of the ebook. Enjoy!
