CARD COLLEGE FIRST!!!!

Omg you're so lucky you have card college so early. Start with that, and you'll be off to the right start. Then go into Royal road and AoA

I agreed with MagicShadow9, not only that you will use as a begineer but to allow to develop sleighs that will help you in the long run.

dam!!! i wish i had that many awesome books when i started out. Oh and you really don't need to buy ANYTHING in like....5 years, no joke.

 

[achuthan1988]

I agree. You have enough material there to last you for a very LONG LONG time.

I know this isn't really addressing your post, but might I ask where your lucky lucky self got Sonata from?

Sean, I'm confused.

 

[praetoritevong]

GBORN - Sonata is not in print and/or otherwise available at all. Hence Sean surmised that the only way to get it was by downloading. Tamariz is his favourite author.

While I commend you for the choice of material, I would simply add that you should know that it is considered highly unethical and disrespectful to download such material.

 

[Sean_Raf]

Sean, I'm confused.

Bluntly put, shortly after asking my question I was sent a PM with an offer of trading an eBook of Sonata (which I am fairly certain doesn't exist as a legal eBook) for By Forces Unseen.

- Sean

Note to self: Make posts clearer.

i got the sonata ebook from my friendwho sent it by mail.I didnt know that it was downloaded illegally.I havent even read the book.Honestly didnt know there was something wrong

Thanks, now I understand why you would be upset.

In which case I apologise for the manner in which I responded. Illegal downloading is something that happens all too often in this area and it's really really sucky.

Best thing to do, delete it (along with any others you may have been sent digitally that you might think aren't legal ) and pray that the book comes back into print. Apologies again, but just so you know, trading is also usually a nono.

With all that under the bridge, let's start again hehe. Which of the books have you read so far and how much?

i am a absolute begginer.Havent read any of the books.But i know few basic effects like:
1)Two card monte
2)you do as i do
3)Here then there
4)Ambitious card routine
5)Si stebbins stack
6)Thoughts forceen by oz pearlman
also i know about 7 or 8 card forces.

 

[cedwards90]

Start out with Card College and Royal Road to Card Magic. Make sure you wait on the Dan and Dave stuff and the Daniel Madison ones. They will serve you well later but make sure you really learn your stuff before moving on to any of their work. Good luck! I wish I had those resources when I started out.

You're off to a good start. I wish I had the library of books you have.

You are starting off with some hard material, but start with card college.
