For now, I will do a review on the dvd first. the dvd is on Mark Mason. In this dvd he teaches 2 uility move, his version of the classic move and a move that steals card from your own breast pocket ( cannot really describe this move, get the magazine to find out more). With these 2 moves, he teacher a few routine using that. Also inside the dvd are products advertisment from JB Magic (not Johor Baru). For the price of the magazine is well covered by this dvd already.
as i was glancing through the magazine, there are also products that you would never go and google it because you never knew it existed. This magazine helps you keep updated on the latest magic products.
Those who has the magazine, pls feel free to add on to the review.
and for those interested in getting the magazine, you can get it from on ebay at this
LinkHe also has other issues of Genii. Back to reading the magazine!!!
