the title says it. THE WORLDS BEST COLLECTION OF EASY TO DO IMPROMPTU CARD MAGIC. now a misconception here is that the title doesnt mean the best card magic. its saying EASY TO DO and IMPROMPTU. still a great collection, and i use some of these. very enjoyable. these are really for if someone catches u off guard and asks you to see a card trick. the reason it lost a star was because i wouldnt use some of these. but dont let that stop you...ADD TO CART!!!
This book was so awesome. All of the card tricks in it are impromptu. All you need is a deck of cards, and most of them are great. The reason it lost a star are that some of the tricks are not ones I would use in public to impress someone.
This is the book i am talking about. It teaches you a large amount of NON GIMMICKED card tricks to pick from, also with different catagories and you might end up preforming all of these. It lost a star because only a couple of these should be used in public. They are more or less just for get togethers with friends or family.

Well, I love impromptu magic, but I was hoping this book would have more like street magic and in the hands effects, alot of it is table magic. However, that doesn't bother me. What I dont like is the lack of explanation, it could take me and hour or more to learn an effect due to the horrible explanations. Not the best, but it does have some good effects.

Impromptu Card Magic
[Verified buyer] by Marc Rehula from Chicago, IL on 08/30/2005 13:36:16
I always value impromptu card magic the most: pick up any deck any time, there's no need for setups, there's no need for gaffs, you don't need to 'clean up' anything when you're done -- it's just you, the cards, and whatever you can create. To me it's the purest form of magic. Thus, I was happy to get this new book, which collects many very effective tricks from modern magicians. Impromptu magic doesn't need to be lame. Buy and study this, and you'll be ready for any occasion.
