I’m thrilled they’re re-releasing this. I always say, when I see Max, ‘Thank you for putting out these books, because they really did save my life.’ If you haven’t read these, you’ve got a treat. Get it while you can.” -Steve Valentine

What a treat to get Max Maven’s entire collection of his ‘The Color Series of Mentalism’ between two book covers. Only his ‘Desire’ and his ‘Four-Sided Triangle’ are worth so much more than you pay for the entire book. And there are so many other gems in it. Get it! ” -Jan Forster
