No one can deny Dani DaOrtiz's skill and ability, and the effects in this book are powerful.
However, I cannot give this book better than 3 stars for two reasons (1 star knocked off for each).
1) The book is so poorly edited, that it is very tough to read. It was translated from
Spanish to English, but it's not just a translation issue, it's an editing issue with several
grammar and typo mistakes left in the book. Some phrases require multiple attempts at reading to try
and determine what information is trying to be given, and you will not be sure if you're reading it
correctly.
2) The book says there are video's to see Dani DaOrtiz perform each effect.
There are not. This is mentioned within an editing error (See issue #1 above), but it's clear what
is trying to be stated, and yet, there ARE NO VIDEO's. I suspect this is because the video's are in
Spanish, but that should be fine. Magic, like most art, is it's own language, and just because you
can't understand the dialog doesn't mean you won't be able to understand what Dani is doing in the
video.

Brilliant idea. Imagine the spectator naming a number between 1 and 52, say 34. They count down that
many cards, but you already know what card is in that location. That is what you learn with this
system, and several effects and presentations with that method.

It is just a PDF. I wasn't able to do anything with it. Just a waste of money!
