“Special Effects is my latest, and I honestly believe my best book to date. Within its forty pages, you’ll encounter thirteen really strong close-up and stand-up routines, and all my own offerings appear here in print for the very first time.
I have stripped away virtually all the sleight-of-hand from most of the routines and presented you with a collection of tried and tested ‘workers’ that are very strong in effect, but equally easy to perform. As I said of one of them, “If I can do it… you DEFINITELY can!” This, I believe, is true of them all.
Along the way Stephen Tucker, who wrote the book for me, has suggested some very clever additions, tips, and ideas, and even a complete routine.
I have been absolutely amazed that, after being quite the finger-flicker myself for many years, I have been able to retain the strength of each effect, but with the absolute minimum of dexterity being required to achieve it.
There are routines with business cards, playing cards, bottles and bottle caps and even one with a silk and a borrowed packet of cigarettes.
Finally, I’d like to thank Pat Page, Steve Beam and Stephen Tucker for permission to include their three routines, and YOU for at least reading this brief book description. I hope that you are now considering buying Special Effects.
At the next convention we both attend feel free to ask me to show you something from the collection, which I’ll be more than happy to do.”
