Tobias' first book exploring the strange and oversaturated realm of card magic. He believes magic should be modular in nature, pieces of a puzzle that slot together depending on the style and context of a performance you may find yourself in. Inside this book you'll find over 30 tricks, ideas, moves, and hair-brained schemes to amuse and delight, ranging from commercially viable set pieces to late night magician foolery.
This book is a veritable brain dump of effects. Some are easy, some are hard, some are self-working, and others are mathematical. If you love strange ideas, intricate sleights and weird principles, this book has a little something for everyone.
Covering nearly 300 pages and 10+ video tutorials for the more technically demanding tricks, routines include:
Hofzinser Orgy
The Eye Test

The Red and the Black
Openly Predictable
