David Regal is a brilliant and productive magic creator and this tome is loaded to the bone with
excellent material. What I like about Regal is that your not just getting a "trick." You're
getting a routine with a premise or story and patter. He has a great sense of humor so if you are a
"serious" or "mysterious" card performer you might not connect with his style.
This is
mainly cards but there is also a great selection of non card routines including his classic Cups and
Balls and Cups and Balls. I also like the Rodent-in-a-box routine as well. I haven't even digest a
fraction of the material in this book. The level of difficulty is easy to very difficult. You'll
learn a lot of excellent new card sleights.
The book is well-written and a joy to read.
Very funny and clever stuff.
Funny, funny magic!
