Good Learners Book
Ordered this book as a gift for my husband. He's new to card tricks. While he didn't find the entire book useful, he did find a lot of interesting/entertaining tricks to work on.

Overall 4 stars because it helped him learn some new tricks but didn't keep him occupied for more than 2 weeks :).

A great book for ideas
Some people cook by recipe, others "by ear," so to speak. I do magic by ear. That is, I look for ideas, and then usually tweak things to fit what I think makes sense.

This is a tremendous book for ideas! Lots and lots and lots of them.

So for a "give me an idea I can run with" person, I think this book is just great. For someone looking more for a step-by-step recipe, this probably isn't the book for you.

Good start
The title of the book gives a good idea of what is in store. Primarily an information source of magic card tricks.

Light on useable information so far as performing is concerned, yet good for the historian.

Then again, most magicians are weak performers and strong on history, so this book will be a treat.
