Appearance, Not Substance,

This review is from: Ultimate Street Magic: Amazing Tricks for the Urban Magician (Hardcover)
There are a few good tricks in this book, but not enough to justify its cost. Most of the effort in producing this book seems to have gone into the presentation, which is slick and glossy, but adds nothing to the book's ability to teach magic.

Collecting dust...,

This review is from: Ultimate Street Magic: Amazing Tricks for the Urban Magician (Hardcover)
Ordered this book as a gift for my husband. He recently started learning card tricks. I thought this book would have more entertaining tricks for him to learn, but overall he wasn't impressed with it. It's mostly simple parlor tricks and would be best suited for teens or children.

Garbage,
By Damion Fraustt (Deep in the woods) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ultimate Street Magic: Amazing Tricks for the Urban Magician (Hardcover)
This book is awful, the tricks suck, and he doesn't even show them at a good angle..I wouldn't even recommend this for a beginner, I would definately recommend Paul Zenon, he's much better and takes better angled shots
