The Prodigal by Atlas Brookings - eBook DOWNLOAD
Let’s be real—this gem is way underpriced. Atlas has packed a staggering amount of theory and practical content into this eBook. Once I’ve absorbed it all, you can bet it’s going straight into my naked repertoire.
Sure, there’s a mountain of information to chew on, but it’s all 100% usable. Atlas has tossed a ton of fresh approaches onto the table. The principle behind this work is so comprehensive that it’s a wonder no one has tackled it like this before. It fills a massive gap in mentalism and opens up a world of possibilities.
I honestly think it’s a steal. You rarely hear me say this, but this is a solid 10/10.
- Bill Dekel, Author of the MindCraft Series
“Good stuff...well worth the attention of many mentalists. Very thorough coverage and history of this method. Congratulations. I love what you have to say about this method and technique.”
- Greg Arce, Author of Deep Thought, Four Thought, and Lost in Thought
“First off, let’s appreciate the sheer amount of thought and effort that went into this product. This isn’t some half-baked release; it's a proper deep dive. If you want to grasp this area of mentalism better, grab this while you can—it's a ticket to new insights. Fantastic work, Atlas!”
- Peter Turner, Author of Dare to Be Bold and Isabella's Dream
“This read is fantastic. I have to admit, this PDF takes an age-old method and really shakes it up. I’ve always steered clear of this technique in my act because I never felt comfortable with it. But after going through this excellent piece from Atlas, I’m now a convert. The 90-page PDF is bursting with information, explanations, examples, and ideas. This wasn't just thrown together; you can tell a lot of time and care went into this. I’m genuinely impressed. I’ll be revisiting this several times to give this method the respect it deserves. Many of you will know the method, but even seasoned users will learn from this in-depth exploration.
Well done, Atlas—you’ve certainly shifted my perspective on this mentalism classic.
This is a must-have!
- Derek Heron, Corporate Entertainer
“This is some great new thinking and fits really well with 'Naked Mentalism'—the whole idea of getting as close to the real thing as possible. An accomplished release indeed.”
- Jon Thompson, Author of the Naked Mentalism Series
“Overall, my initial thoughts are: thank God, someone finally wrote this! The material is real-world and incredibly workable. Great job, Atlas.”
“The Prodigal is essential for any serious mentalist's library or anyone wanting to finally grasp one of the most misunderstood yet undeniably powerful techniques in mentalism.”
- Jakob Michaels
“Atlas has done for this principle what Docc Hilford and Max Maven did for magician’s choice. No fluff, just solid material.”
- Stephen Young, Thought Illusions
“This is simply excellent. I’ve always loved the concept presented in this manuscript but never considered it a viable tool. Atlas has broken down the process step-by-step, making it a practical endeavor. Yes, you’ll need to work at it—like anything worthwhile. But after reading The Prodigal, I’m genuinely excited to put in the effort. I can’t wait to integrate this into my other routines. The effects and systems included are a steal and enough to get anyone started immediately. But for me, the real treasure lies in the precise manual on mastering this underrated principle in mentalism. This is one of my best purchases this year for advancing my craft.”
- Rich Orvec
“The Prodigal has had me spending too much time developing new effects. It's an absolute blast, and I’m getting such satisfaction from each one I create. I tested one of the effects from the book, and it worked like a charm. If you lean towards a psychological mentalist approach (like I do), this is an invaluable resource. But even if that’s not your style, it's still a fantastic resource!”
- Seamus Macguire
“One method, a plethora of effects! Highly recommended!”
- Scott Marshall
“I recently picked up The Prodigal after hearing the buzz, and I can confirm—it lives up to the hype. This PDF is a strategy guide for mastering branching anagrams. The 'superhero' anagram alone is worth the price, but it’s the 'thinking + strategy' behind the most effective use of B.A.'s and disguising their application that makes this PDF so darn good. Thanks, Atlas—great stuff!”
- Ben Cummings, Creator of Conversations with Mind Readers
“Fantastic job, Atlas! This is undoubtedly the best source of information on the subject out there. Truly brilliant thinking. I’m struggling with what/how to adopt or adapt because The Prodigal is an embarrassment of riches!”
- Dr. Bill Cushman, Creator of Dr. Bill's Bend
“Atlas Brookings is a thoughtful creator who has compiled an extensive resource for anyone looking to use branching anagrams in a deceptive and entertaining way. The Prodigal is a joy to read, and I think that applies even to those who don't identify as mentalists. Brookings' dedicated research into this method is inspiring; we should all aspire to such a passion for study and improvement.”
- Arthur Trace, Magic Magazine
“Most of us have seen those shows where someone takes a dusty old item to a flea market, only for an expert to uncover its hidden value. Too often in Mentalism, a method doesn’t live up to our expectations. We walk away, leaving it behind to gather dust until someone shows us its true potential. The Prodigal aims to demonstrate the value of one misunderstood method and reveals the masterpieces that can be crafted with it.
It showcases pure mental powers—no pencils, no scraps of paper, no gimmicks that trigger the audience’s skepticism. The Prodigal explores the method for creating genuine mind reading—miracles you can perform in a straight jacket or with no props at all if you prefer.
As others say—“You can perform this naked.”
The Prodigal delivers compelling mentalism in its purest form.
90 pages long, this e-book serves up a variety of strong close-up and stage-worthy mind reads, enhances performance material grounded in psychological forces, and provides methods for impressive ungaffed book tests. Plus, it outlines how actions taken in radio studios or corporate offices hundreds of miles away can be accurately revealed. Best of all, it sets up a creative platform for you to expand and craft your own unique feats!
