"We humans have a long history of wielding writing instruments to record our brilliant (and not-so-brilliant) thoughts.
And we magicians? Well, we’ve turned writing tools into instruments of deception and wonder."
If you were to buy each pen and effect in this book separately, you'd be staring down the barrel of over £900 (yep, that's a lot of quid).
This delightful tome is a blend of DIY wizardry and magic routines, featuring 9 major projects you can whip up yourself and 7 fully-crafted routines, not to mention a smattering of other nifty tricks.
Discover how to create 3 types of flash pens, a smokeless, flameless pen, a PSI pen, multipurpose pens, clever uses for standard pens, and mentalist utility pens. No need to be an electronics whizz—just grab the know-how! Each budget-friendly project comes with a chapter to show you how to use your flashy new pen in a genuine, time-tested magical effect.
This book is bursting at the seams with over 150 vibrant colour photos, 13 detailed illustrations, various diagrams, 11 instructional video links, and a handy list of sources for materials (updated as of July 2012).
Why fork out £150 for a PSI pen when you can make your own for less than £8? Or whip up a sturdy flash pen for under £10, or a non-flame smoke pen for just £20? Most of the book's gimmicked pen projects can be crafted in 30 minutes or less using stuff you’ve got lying around the house—all at a fraction of the retail price. Seriously, if you added up the market value of everything in this book, you’d be looking at a grand total of over £900!
