Note from Martin:

Full of extremely powerful card magic requiring the minimum of effort, this'll be one of the best magic books you'll ever read. If you have mastered basic card handling skills, then this book is perfect to increase your repertoire.  

 

With recommendations by Roy Walton, Gordon Bruce, Andrew Galloway & Jerry Sadowitz among other great magicians, the quality of close-up magic contained within the pages of this book, is second to none. The routines are mainly card based and assume the reader already knows basic card handling skills, but that is all - if you can handle a pack of cards - this book will teach you some of the most powerful routines you'll ever come across and they'll go straight into your performance.
