Where do we begin about Interpreting Magic? Theoretically, this book shouldn’t be good. David Regal is prolific and just ten years ago he published the outstanding Approaching Magic, which contained a lifetime worth of magic and wisdom. It’s almost unheard of for a magician to publish more than two books of top-quality material. There simply isn’t time in one life to road-test so much material. And yet…Interpreting Magic is here, and it’s exceptional.
