Karl Fulves, one of the most renowned modern writers in the field of magic, presents here 67 new and foolproof tricks-spectacular mental feats that seem impossible, but are easy to perform.
 
None of the tricks require long practice, supernormal dexterity, or complicated apparatus. Mr. Fulves' precise, easy-to-follow instructions and many helpful diagrams lead to quick mastey and effective performance of each. Perform mystifying mental magic in such categories as:

  • Instant ESP
  • Mind Reading with Cards
  • Mind Over Matter
  • Book Tests
  • Psychic Secrets
  • Slate Sorcery
  • Miracles with Cards
  • Psychometry

Many of these tricks can be done with no prior preparation, and all involve easy-to-find materials: a deck of cards, coins, matches, dice, keys, chalk, etc. But while the materials used are ordinary, the effects achieved are truly extraordinary.

Magicians who wish to add mental acts to their routines, party entertainers or anyone wishing to give an amazing performance of mental magic will find this book perfect for their needs.

Paperbound, 121 5 3/8" by 8 1/2" pages, 73 illustrations.

Great book Report this review

I was curious about this book, and thought it was a cheap addition after having read Corinda, Annemann, among others. I was pleasantly surprised by the book however, for some of its clever plots and methods that are easy and stress-free to perform. Of all the Self Working books Fulves has published however, I consider this my least favorite, but it is still very good and for 5 bucks it is impossible for you NOT to get your money's worth and more.

That is about all I can say after picking up this book again. For a bit of background, I picked up this (along with all the other "self-working" books at a bookstore back when I was just starting magic. I can go ahead and say that the bookstores were charging more than penguin does already. Anyway, this book contains 67 (YES, 67) routines that are all FANTASTIC mentalism routines.

Don't discount this book (or any of the others) JUST because they are centered towards beginners; I have found material in here that would work JUST as well in a proffesional's stage show as would a 300 dollar mentalism gimmick.

The real value of this book however is in the book test and slate section. Most of the stuff I have found in those sections I WILL be playing around with.

Highly recommended for the beginner and expert alike!

Really GRReat effects as previously mentioned. For both Newbies and those who already perform. I do a lot (14) of the effects in this book and they do fool Magi and other mentalists as well. Simple..yes but really audience grabbers for sure. This will be enough to give a nice 1 hour presentation of a mentalism show. Nice effects too for birthday parties using "slates". Peace always from tRick Gaffney. Magi for Cincys Childrens Hospital for 8 years.
