These videos are great if you have ever wanted to learn some solid impromptu magic. Tom performs a variety of effects for a group in a natural environment that you may find yourself in: sitting around at home. These are good effects and Tom does a great job presenting and then teaching them. The only problem I had is that these are nothing new and many can be found in beginner's magic books. For this reason I give the videos a 3. These are very easy to learn though and with a little bit of practice you will have no problems performing them for your friends. For better impromptu material I would suggest Greg Wilson's On the spot, also available from Penguin
