Mentalissimo by John Bannon

Discover the latest card magic collection, Mentalissimo, by John Bannon, launching at Magic Live on August 14th, 2016.

In this exciting compendium, Bannon merges his expertise in mentalism and card magic. He states, “I perform card tricks, have a deep passion for mentalism, and am obsessed with the art of magic construction. This book encapsulates everything I seek in one volume.”

Expect to find:

• Clear revelations of freely chosen cards.
• Demonstrations of psychic feats that defy mere coincidence.
• Effective and straightforward prediction techniques.
• Unique interpretations of classic mentalism effects, including “Add-a-Number” and “Out of This World.”

With thirty distinct effects detailed across twenty-one chapters, most routines utilize standard, unprepared cards. A couple of effects require a common gaffed card, while many are impromptu. Some may involve a minimal stack, and a few use simple external props. One effect even incorporates ESP symbol cards. Each routine is thoughtfully explained, enriched with commentary and insights. Engage with these intriguing card effects and enjoy the discussions they inspire.
