- A good example of a new book that has great content and excellent design and paper quality is Tom Gagnon`s "Too hot for the devil".
- My favorite cover is "A book in English". The cover is the introduction to the first trick in the book
- The most physical efficient books I own are the German Edition of Card College with ring binding (Vol 3 + 4). Makes working with it much more comfortable.
The least efficient is my copy of "The Essential Dai Vernon". Fantastic content. It just doesn`t remain open because it has so many pages and working with it is a pain.
- The aesthetically most pleasent magic books in my collection are "Magic 1400s-1950s" and "Johann Nepomuk Hofzinser. Non plus Ultra Vol. 1 + 2"
- The book with the highest "pages-exploit"-ratio to me is "Card Fictions" by Pit Hartling. Very few pages, nifty little book, learned a lot.
- Books with new ?! (at least creative ) ideas in terms of how to represent/read material are "Secret Agenda" (Diary), "Dear Mr.Fantasy" (a part is presented as a story/dialogue -> dead reckoning for example) , and as already mentioned by Zach, "Session: The Magic of Joel Givens" (which contains my favorite Pseudo Memory routine beside "Unforgetable" (Card Fiction))
