I am aware that I have written a couple of negative reviews on this site but I have always been honest and given my genuine opinion.īuy this book if for no reason than it will be the most beautiful book in your bookcase. And as an added bonus, a number of the effects work perfectly over things such as Zoom, Skype etc. It's definitely one I recommend to fellow magicians. In short this is an amazing book, made to Vanishing Inc's usual high quality. Whilst a number of tricks are well within reach of beginners, existing card magic skills will be very helpful and even essential for some effects. Some prior knowledge of card sleights and moves is also necessary. Either way, this is a minor complaint and isn't a huge issue. That being said it may be more down to my ability or lack of knowledge rather than a fault with the images themselves.

If I had to make one criticism it would be that it's sometimes difficult to visualise how to get to a particular step due to 90% of the images being from the spectators perspective and those that aren't not being particularly enlightening. There's a huge number of coins and card tricks, most of which are within anyone's reach if they're willing to put in a little practice. This is a wonderful book, in terms of production value and quality Vanishing Inc do make the nicest books. There's not much I can add to the reviews already here.

And his 'Tooth Fairy' effect is a rare coin effect designed specifically for children.įor those who want to work a little harder, you'll learn Scott's 'Heavy Metal,' where twelve Spellbound changes happen in rapid succession! And of particular interest is Scott's work on the Wild Coin plot, where he elevates the effect from a small coin trick to a full performance piece. His 'Sucker Monte' is a close-up worker's dream an easy impromptu monte routine that uses subtly over sleights. You place three silver coins into a coin purse and make it transpose with a copper coin, with the silver coins appearing in three different places at the same time. For example, his 'Different Differences' is a coin routine that is as easy as it is visual. While most of the routines use sleight of hand, there are effects for all skill levels.

They are lavishly illustrated with full-color photographs, and described in just the right amount of detail to allow you to learn each trick with props in hand. Many of these pieces have been in Scott's repertoire for over twenty years and several have become instant modern classics (such as 'Riding the Wave,' Scott's impromptu Invisible Deck routine that many other versions are based on). In his introduction, Steve Beam called him 'one of his favorite magicians' - and we understand why.Īndi Gladwin and John Campbell worked together to describe 46 of Scott's finest card and coin magic. His magic is the rare complete combination: deceptive, entertaining, and visual. In his hands, coins appear in three separate locations at once and cards dematerialise in ways that we never thought were possible. Scott Robinson creates some of the most interesting visual close-up magic that we have ever seen.
