Rune Carlsen, an international award-winning magician from Norway, stands as a luminary in the world of magic. His journey, spanning nearly four decades, has been adorned with international awards, prominent TV appearances, and the honor of two golden buzzers from different countries. Rune's performances have captivated audiences at The Magic Castle and nearly outsmarted the famed Penn & Teller.

With 27 years of professional experience, Rune's heart lies in close-up and parlor magic. His skill has not only won the hearts of the public but has also earned him the title of "a magician's magician," as praised by Howard Hamburg. This profound respect from peers is a reflection of Rune's deep understanding and innovative approach to magic.

This passion and expertise come to life in Rune's debut book, "X". It's a hardcover compilation featuring his top 10 favorite card tricks, a blend of effects he adores and performs regularly. The book diverges from well-known classics, instead highlighting lesser-known gems, Rune's unpublished creations, and tricks that have amazed other magicians. Contributions from esteemed magicians like Shawn Farquhar, John Guastaferro, Vidar Strat, Jason Dean, Steve Ehlers, Tom Daugherty, Geoff Williams, Paul Vigil, Martin Nash, and Jared Kopf, complemented by Rune's additional notes and variations, enrich this collection.

"X" is more than just a compilation of tricks; it includes Rune's personal essays, each offering insights into his life and the mystical journey that shaped his path in magic. These narratives are carefully placed among the effects, adding depth and variety to the reader's experience. The book details each effect comprehensively, with sections on introduction, description, requirements, setup, performance, and additional notes, all beautifully presented with high-quality photos and designs.

The completion of this book was a journey in itself, delayed nearly three years by the Covid pandemic. What felt like it could have been Rune's final legacy is now a testament to his resilience and enduring passion for magic. Additionally, as a bridge between the book and the digital world, Rune offers QR codes linking to a digital source for visual learning and community interaction, further enriching the reader's experience.

Rune Carlsen's contribution to the magical arts goes beyond performances and accolades. His book "X" and his continued enchantment of audiences worldwide solidify his status as a beacon in the magical community, inspiring those who dare to follow in his footsteps.
