[Rich Rosell · Rating 5 out of 5]

I was fortunate enough to locate a vintage copy of this in excellent condition, and it has lived up to the hype. Lorayne's approach to card magic is much deeper than "do this, do that, you're done", and one of the main reasons for picking this up was to get a bit of help with some basic mechanics.

Highly recommended - if you like to play with cards....
