Card College (V1-5) is just one of the many references I own in my magic library. However, it
stands alone as the best reference of any I have ever seen. I started out in magic not able to do
anything with cards. I couldn't shuffle, I couldn't spread the cards, and I certainly couldn't
control the cards. Over the course of several years I worked my way through every page of this
series on cards. As a result I have become extremely comfortable (and competent) performing card
magic. The slights are explained, with excellent graphics, better than any other reference I own.
The tricks are just fantastic. When I find tricks in other references that mention slights which I
may not be familiar with or that I might be rusty performing, I just refer to card college for the
explanation on the slight.
If anyone plans on doing card magic, this series may be the
best reference on the market. Please note that if you are making an investment in one of these
books, plan on buying all the books as you will want a complete reference. Each book focuses on
different techniques.
