He makes you wait! The first effect he performs is not explained until the end of the lecture
(sneaky). While some might say that Ghostwriter is not workable because it is not fully examinable,
why would anyone want to examine the cards anyway? I think audience management is a big thing in
this lecture. And it goes well with the multiple outs theory: aka have a backup plan to the backup
plan.
I have Max's Four Sided Triangle from some of his previous work. After seeing his
work on the classic force in the lecture, I realized that, in terms of cleanly forcing a card, I
myself would use a one-way force deck (with presentation ideas found in Peter Turner's live
lecture).
The book test presentation was very interesting and his subtleties and
performance tips are priceless.
Bottom line, you will definitely find something in this
lecture that you can perform TODAY. The best mentalism is simple and straightforward and Max Maven
delivers. Highly recommended.
