1.0 out of 5 stars What is the point !!, July 12, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: All the Secrets of Magic Revealed: The Tricks and Illusions of the World's Greatest Magicians (Paperback)

Do you believe that anybody once fooled by a Magic trick should be allowed to wtite a book once he believes he worked out the secret ? Don't encourage this type a behaviour ! Don't waste your money !!! It is badly written. The drawings are of very bad quality. And what about this chapter on David Copperfield ? What is the point !!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Pseudo explanations of popular illusions !, July 12, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: All the Secrets of Magic Revealed: The Tricks and Illusions of the World's Greatest Magicians (Paperback)

Mr. Becker offer us a collection of inept so called secrets of popular illusions. With the exception of one or two sections, the drawings are of poor quality and the secrets are unworkable. The chapter on David Copperfield is stupid. Who is Mr. Becker trying to fool. Generally badly written. Fail to explain the true beauty of the art of magic. Not recommended. Suggest instead any book by Mark Wilson or in the Dover collection.

1.0 out of 5 stars A waste of money, August 19, 2005

Good day "Good day" - See all my reviews

This review is from: All the Secrets of Magic Revealed: The Tricks and Illusions of the World's Greatest Magicians (Paperback)

You won't find all the secrets of magic in this book, it's more of a David Copperfield advertisement, with a hole chapter of his credits, along with some generic secrets that you can find in library books.
