Here’s a gem from two chaps who’ve been at it longer than some of us care to admit. Professional magicians and lifelong pals Chris Congreave and Gary Jones have been weaving their magic together for nearly 20 years. Over that time, they’ve churned out a staggering number of effects and routines—many of which are staples in the repertoires of working magicians (you know, the ones who actually get paid for this stuff).
So, what’s the fuss about? Alas Chris & Jones is a collection of the crème de la crème of their work over the past two decades. Inside, you’ll find 72 meticulously chosen routines from their past tomes, plus 16 shiny new effects that are fresh off the magic press. And just for good measure, they’ve thrown in some insightful essays on close-up magic and misdirection (because why not?).
With chapters covering everything from card magic and coins to mentalism and a bit of "something different," this book has got all your bases covered (unless you're after an instruction manual on how to juggle, in which case, you’re on your own).
Alas Chris & Jones isn’t just a book; it’s a beautiful tome that you’re going to adore. Seriously, your bookshelf will thank you for it!
