Author Robin Deville, former French Magic champion has written a book that's more useful than any other magic book on the market. You'll learn the secrets of building an entire act. Before you start building an act, you're gonna need some routines, and this book will teach you some of of Deville's professionally scripted routines. Coins Through the Table - three coins penetrate the table, no gimmicks Sandwich Chercheur - a direct, intelligent sandwich routine Instant Sandwich - a fast, visual take on the classic Investigator Sticker - an original concept built around a sticker Gambler vs Magician - a dynamic, multi-phase duel
Once you've mastered these, it's time to apply them to a full act... and that's where this book really shines.
