After reading Andrew's manuscript, Joshua Jay commented, "And I must say, very impressive! Most of the time I get one or two tricks, but you sent me a whole book! And the book is a fine read, indeed. It's obvious that you are a 'worker' and that you have performed most of these routines enough to know the ins and outs. Very clever stuff and, also, a very disarming writing style. Congratulations."
Fertile Stratagems is the brainchild of Andrew Woo, a Toronto magician who knows his way around a stage (and a deck of cards). He’s not just a one-trick pony; he was featured in
The Linking Rings during their "One-Man Parade" in 2013 and now pens a monthly column titled "Simple Diversions" for the same publication.
Now, for the first time, he’s sharing his treasure trove with the magic community. This eBook is packed with 90 pages, over 600 photos, and more than 35 effects/slights that showcase his unique approach and clever thinking in the Art of Magic. Here’s what
Fertile Stratagems has in store for you:
Pass the Seasonings - Ever wanted to spice up your restaurant routine? Watch as salt and pepper grains are poured into your hand, only to magically separate and appear as two distinct entities. It’s an unusual sight that’ll leave diners scratching their heads!
Simplex Four Ace Wootine - Andrew’s fresh spin on the classic "McDonald's Four Ace" routine. No setup and no need for special cards or deck switches. You’ll master three EASY vanishes to execute this modern miracle: The Butterfly, The Flip Floppy, and The Stepladder.
The Ultimate Marked Deck - The secrets of a marketed item are finally revealed! Get detailed instructions on how to mark a Bicycle deck in under half an hour. This method will fool even the most observant spectators and fellow magicians.
Grandfather's Tale - A charming magical narrative from a brand-new deck. Unwrap the cellophane and take your audience on a delightful journey where a grandfather introduces card magic to his grandson. Four cards undergo stunning transformations, and the best part? They can examine everything at the end!
Gluteus Maximus Cutius - Show off real skill with a flourish that cuts and shuffles a deck while keeping a control card at the bottom. It’s as impressive as it sounds, and your spectators will be none the wiser.
99.9% Foolproof - A clever way to prove that a selected card is not lurking at the top or bottom of the deck, giving the illusion that it’s lost somewhere in the middle. But you know where it is, and that’s all that matters.
Circle Marks the Spot - In a fun twist, a borrowed bill is folded and torn in a ritualistic Aztec-inspired procedure. Don’t worry—the bill is completely restored and handed back as a souvenir. It’s simple, effective, and ends perfectly clean.
