In 2019, Larry Hass kicked off the posthumous book extravaganza with the first of two volumes that promised to unveil Eugene Burger's unpublished gems. This was all done at Eugene's behest and with a good bit of teamwork. It’s Eugene’s heartfelt wish that his entire working repertoire would be out in the wild for magicians to enjoy after he’d taken his final bow.
Flash forward two years, and it’s time for EUGENE BURGER: FINAL SECRETS — the sequel you didn’t know you were waiting for (but let’s be honest, you totally were).
This one’s a love letter to the card magic that catapulted Eugene to close-up stardom. FINAL SECRETS compiles essays, interviews, and detailed descriptions of seventeen real-world card routines that Eugene kept under wraps — including gems like Influence, Fishing, Order and Chaos, Thought Sender, and his iconic insights on The Trick that Cannot Be Explained. (I mean, who doesn’t want to know how that one works?)
But wait, there’s more! EUGENE BURGER: FINAL SECRETS also features both text and audio versions of Eugene’s 1992 masterpiece, Growing in the Art of Magic. And, just because, it grants you access to twenty-seven videos and audio recordings of Eugene showcasing and dissecting his delightful card magic, while dispensing his wisdom on reaching for excellence in the craft (take notes, folks).
The wait is over: you’re about to get your hands on Eugene Burger’s FINAL SECRETS.
