I underlined those words because creating close-up magic with cards that consistently follows a three-act structure is rare these days. But those who take the time to develop and refine magic with the dramaturgy that has stood the test of time find their routines to be exponentially more entertaining, baffling, magical and fun. Maybe you are 'Bill, the Card Guy' after all?\"\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Michael Breggar\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\"Very seldom does a card magic book make me want to grab a deck of cards and work through every item.
