Whether you’ve always wanted to Palm cards, only Palm occasionally or are experienced and looking for exciting new applications, this volume will fill you with joy. If you’re a novice, it will make developing Palming skill easier than ever. If you already Palm frequently, you’ll think you’ve found heaven.

Vincent Hedan – Amnesia

Amnesia means “loss of memory” in Spanish, because my book explores the famous Mnemonica memorized deck by Juan Tamariz, WITHOUT having to memorize it!

After 15 years of research on Mnemonica, Vincent Hedan discovered surprising properties thanks to which you can perform impossible effects, WITHOUT knowing the order of the deck. You just need a regular deck, then you arrange it in the order indicated in the book and you follow the routines step by step.

The repertoire contains visual effects and mentalism effects, fully self-working effects and more technical effects, and everything can be done with a simple, regular deck of playing cards.

If you want to perform impressive card magic, work on new concepts and new sleights, and entertain your spectators, you will find value in this new book.

Enjoy the power of Mnemonica, and offer miracles to your audience!

9 effects, more than 200 pages, in English, with more than 300 illustrations.

The book has a 13cm x 21cm format, a soft cover, and glued binding.

The book gives you access to the 13 videos in English and the bonus download.

Tyler Wilson – Reinventing The Real

“Reinventing The Real is the best and most exciting book on close-up magic I’ve read in a long time. In it Tyler Wilson shows himself wonderfully inventive, a serious student of his craft and very funny. The only fault this book has is that I’m not publishing it.”
– Stephen Minch

“There are very few magic books that make me laugh on purpose. This one did. I have not met Mr. Wilson, but it is clear that he is impressively well read, and threateningly clever. Had I not read it first, this material would have fooled me. Thus, I’d probably find it difficult to like him.”
– Max Maven

“Wow! Reinventing The Real has so much variety it could have been called Kamasutricks. The book is an inspiring read. It’s full of unique presentations, methods, and strong effects. Make room on your bookshelf and get ready to add to your repertoire.”
– Ray Kosby

“Reinventing The Real is a well-written and well-produced book with great magic, solid methods, terrific presentations and spot on references and credits.”
– Jason England

Do you hate trying to learn a trick, only to come across vague statements such as, “Patter to the audience while you perform the next seven moves…” or, “This extensive setup can be arranged while you toy with the deck…”?
