    Abnormal Behaviour - Ran Pink

    As some of you may know I only write reviews for things I truly believe in and this product is no exception. This is a short and sweet ebook with three card routines. Whilst I know cards and mentalism do not mix in some peoples eyes this book is pure gold for those who like to use cards in...

    2011 What a year.

    Whisper -Ken Dyne

    Firstly let me state that this is very difficult product to review, especially on these forums. There are a few different reasons for that and primarily that is due to the demographic of the majority of the members here.

    The Act Series - Mick Ayers (the first four acts.)

    Basically Mick as a ridiculous performing contract in which he performs more than anyone, and the strength of his performances ensures that he has kept this contract for many years. What is truly amazing is that Mick writes his retired acts up for the community to use as they see fit. Whilst...

    Hand's Off - Patrick Redford

    What They Say Using his original effect Auspicious Coincidence as a jumping off point (Mendacity, 2005), Redford has taken his Any Card at Any Number to a whole new level. Someone names (really) any card, another (really) any number. The performer asks if it would be impressive if that card...

    Just a few thoughts

    In practical physics it is an accepted fact that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. Why should this be any different in Magic? The accepted reasoning why this occurs is that it has too, whilst this is true because we are not doing it for real. However I believe that the...

    Docc Hilford - The Vault

    The Positivity Thread - Say Something About Someone

    That One Effect

    I was just wondering what effect that you have in the back of your mind but you have never performed. There could be many reasons for this; the sleights the setup up or the presentation.
