Master Deceptive Miracles

Dive into a meticulously curated selection of high-impact magic. Learn 'Shapeshifter,' an eye-popping card change that will leave spectators stunned. Baffle them with 'Twin Transpo x 2,' a routine where signed cards vanish from the deck, reappear in your wallet, and then impossibly transpose under impossible conditions. Witness a lightning-fast card production with 'Collection Agency,' where three freely chosen cards appear interlaced between four face-up Aces in the blink of an eye. Explore 'Quad-Ringle Plus,' a mesmerizing routine where a borrowed finger ring repeatedly frees itself from a length of rope, then vanishes, only to reappear inside a card case that was resting on the table from the outset. Challenge minds with 'Die of Destiny,' Marc's beautiful approach to a Claude Rix classic, where a spectator, with the help of a blank die, first eliminates clumps of cards, then individual cards, until they pinpoint their freely chosen card. Discover additional captivating deceptions like 'Miniature Bowling Ball From Briefcase,' 'Snowflake,' 'Copper/Silver My Way,' 'Picasso's Bill,' and 'The Cover Change.'

Includes:

• Shapeshifter: One card, held at the fingertips, instantly changes into another in this eye-popping move that has been popularized by the likes of Allan Ackerman and David Blaine!
• Twin Transpo x 2: Two cards are chosen and signed, then vanish from the deck, only to appear inside the magician's wallet. They are removed and transpose with each other repeatedly under impossible conditions, then finally, the face from one card transposes with the back from the other, leaving the magician with one double-backed card and the spectator with one double-faced card, with both signed selections on each side!
• Collection Agency: A lightning-fast version of Roy Walton's classic Collectors! Three freely-chosen cards appear face down and interlaced between four face-up Aces in the blink of an eye!
• Quad-Ringle Plus: A borrowed finger ring frees itself repeatedly from a length of rope, at times unexpectedly, at times visibly, then finally, it vanishes, only to appear inside a card case that was resting on the table from the outset!
• Die of Destiny: A spectator freely chooses a card, then replaces it anywhere in the deck. So far, sounds familiar... But then, with the help of a blank die and a fertile imagination, she first eliminates clumps of cards, then individual cards, until finally, she arrives at one lone card. Slowly, carefully, she turns the card face up, revealing it to be her selection! Marc's beautiful approach to this Claude Rix classic is worth the price of the book!
