Lightest and Last!

Card College Lightest is the final volume of Roberto Giobbi's acclaimed 'Light' trilogy. In it are taught 18 thoroughly astonishing tricks of professional quality, complete with performing psychology, presentations, valuable tips and insights, all of which contribute to making these sleightless effects into near miracles.

The tricks Giobbi has selected this time range from time-tested classics to little-known wonders by masters of the craft, including Larry Becker, Henry Christ, Aldo Colombini, Paul Curry, Alex Elmsley, Karl Fulves, Martin Gardner, Stewart James, Howard Adams, Richard Vollmer and more.

Also explained are simple methods for achieving false shuffles, deck switches and other techniques usually attainable only by demanding sleight-of-hand.

Roberto Giobbi is acknowledged worldwide as the finest living teacher of card magic. His Card College series is a best-seller in five languages, and Card College Lightest is the newest example of why he and his works are held in such high regard by magicians of all levels, from rank amateur to seasoned professional. If you have read his books, you will need no urging to buy Card College Lightest. If you have yet to encounter Roberto Giobbi, you will find Card College Lightest a delightful introduction.

The video demo of Gemini Calling with Dan Harlan is a little misleading. Otherwise, a very good book.

I highly recommend owning the entire trilogy. I have Light and Lightest. So far Lightest is my favorite. I'd recommend these to anyone interested in learning sleight-free card magic. These are professional caliber tricks though. Though no sleights are required, some basic things like false shuffles/cuts do strengthen the effects. Roberto Giobbi is a card master. He not only explains how tricks work, but he tells you HOW they work. Get his Card College series and his Card College Light trilogy, and you'll have a card magic gold mine. If you still have the money after that, get Harry Lorayne's Classic Collection series and his latest book, Special Effects. You'll be in possession of an awesome card magic library. Enjoy!!!!

Great book! However… Report this review

First of all, Roberto is a legend and everyone should own all of his books. However… something sneaky happened in this trailer. This trick fooled me badly only because he wrote the predictions as Dan was shuffling. I bought the book right away because I thought this aspect was the variant. Sadly, this was not the case. You still need to glimpse the top and bottom cards AFTER they shuffle. In this video, it was staged. Roberto had already placed his predictions on the top and bottom of the deck and then told Dan (before filming) to give the deck a top and bottom retention shuffle. Is this a deal breaker? I don’t know. But it’s incredibly misleading and I felt let down. But at the end of the day, a laymen will remember it the same way. In any case, the material in the book otherwise is top notch.

The first trick is worth for the cost of the book. And others are bonus.

These books are not easy to find but I have managed to get all five. Worth every penny--as are his Light, Lighter, and Lightest versions; chock full of truly valuable information for any level magician.

All three of the books in this series are clever, useful and fun. I have performed almost all of them for family and friends whose reactions were every bit as amazing as when I do slight-based tricks. Well, that is somewhat of on overstatement, since at least one of my standard tricks that uses a few slights creates a spectacular degree of amazement. Be that as it may, anyone will find these books to be a terrific source of quick and great tricks, especially if you are adept at deck switching. (Now I understand wy Robertoi has written a book specifically on that topic. I look forward to getting that boo.

The best one of the series Report this review

I love self working and sleightless card magic and Roberto Giobbi delivers on all fronts. Each trick is well written, through with patter and concept and has beautiful artwork, Already an experienced card shark? No problem - this book contains powerful magic and great concepts - this is not your Dad's beginner card magic book - this is the Card College Son - you're about to get schooled! Out of the three in the series - this is my favorite book - I think I do at least 10 tricks from this book in my every day routines
