‘Before I read it I didn’t understand misdirection, It has given me an insight into how magic is performed. For example I never understood how the magic trick The Topsy Turvey Card worked, the first trick in the Royal Road to Card Magic, until I read this ebook and learned about the off beat and relaxing.’ – R Lawson
