Paper Engine by Aaron Fisher

Excerpt:
___________________________________

If you can answer yes to any of the following questions, The Paper Engine can significantly improve your sleight-of-hand with cards.

1. Do you ever feel like many magic books are works of fiction?

2. Do you get tired of seeing every new variation in card magic described as 'revolutionary'?

3. Have you ever practiced a technique for years and noticed little real improvement?

4. Have you learned the basics and found yourself confused about how to proceed in learning advanced sleight of hand?

5. Do you want to actually perform this stuff for living, breathing people?

6. Do you want to perform heavy sleight-of-hand magic successfully, even when you're surrounded?

Does anybody have a review of this one ? Is it good ?


Thanks :)

Did you just received his email for his new paperback version of this book?

55 comments and reviews for you over here

This book is for the more intermediate to advanced card handlers. It explains the sleights, after which it also incorporates some effects using those sleights. Not a easy book to tackle but well within reach if you practice enough.

Here is a few clips of Aaron Fisher's work.

These clips are not the best representations of his work but if you are interested and possible, get his Lecture in London video. You wouldn't regret it.

P.S. By the way, anybody knows if Aaron Fisher gave a lecture in Singapore before? Or is there any chance of seeing him coming over here for one?
