Hi. This is your official PenguinMagic reviewer, B_Magic!

I'll be honest...people told me about Tarbells and I saw them around for years before I ever picked up the series. This is one book series I really wish I would have listened to all the people who told me to get them earlier. This, besides perhaps a couple of key books (like "Royal Road" and "Expert Card Technique") are THE BEST books in magic that I think just about anyone even thinking remotely seriously about magic should own. The books are THAT good.

I won't say they are the easiest books out there to read, and there are more than enough challenging effects contained within the books to keep you busy for YEARS if you want. The books can be a slight challenge at time for sure. I found books like "Now You See It, Now You Don't" and "Royal Road" to be a little bit easier to grasp as a beginner. That said, do NOT let that deter you. These books are prized gems, and should be in your library.

In the day and age where everyone is into Instant Downloads and home video, it may be hard to purchase books to learn magic. If there are any books you should have and are thinking of getting it's first Royal Road to Card Magic and Card College. These would IMMEDIATELY follow those books. And if you are a seasoned magic vet and don't own these yet....ADD TO CART.

It's a great investment.
