Following the Very Best Of Automatic Card Tricks, the VBO Dai Vernon and the VBO Simon Aronson, here is a brand-new Very Best Of from Magic Dream Editions!

 

 

The scope of Nick Trost's card magic is vast, both in the diversity of effects and methods explained and in the number of authors who have inspired him, across all eras.

 

The descriptions are written in a sober, clear style that makes them understandable by all.

 

You'll discover incredible tricks, performed with an ordinary deck of cards, requiring only elementary card knowledge. Many rely on principles that make them "automatic", or on ingenious setups that handle everything, or almost everything, for you!

 

The few specific skills needed, or simply useful, are explained for newcomers either within the tricks that use them, or in the "Techniques" section at the end of the book.

 

We can't wait to tell you more about this magnificent book, and to detail its contents in our next Live!
