“Magictales” – The Ultimate Guide to Storytelling Magic!

MAGICTALES is an essential resource for anyone interested in the art of storytelling magic. Authored by Leslie, who previously captivated readers with “Kismet or the Enchanted Stepping Stones,” this book delves deeper into the enchanting world of magical narratives.

• A Young Man’s Meeting With Death! (An easy card trick).
• How To Exorcise a Vampire!
• A Witch, A Pill and A Bottle!
• Painless Parker and The Necklace of Teeth!
• Cagliostro Lives!
• The Prince, The Riddles and the Goatskin
• The Friendly Witch and Her Linking Pins (A humorous rhyming routine for the Slydini Pins).
• The Blushing Palms of Samoa!
• and more…

Each routine is meticulously detailed, complete with presentation tips and insights. Leslie emphasizes, “Many of these routines are fresh, while others have been part of my repertoire for years. Additionally, I’ve included story presentations tailored for themed events I’ve participated in.” This book also features unique performances that, while not always fitting into standard shows, deliver a powerful impact when executed.

A dedicated chapter on Stories and Storytelling Magic explains how narrative enhances magical performances. You’ll discover sources for stories that align with your effects and learn to create magic that resonates emotionally with your audience. Tips on delivery, timing, and acting techniques can elevate your performances significantly.

As a bonus, the publisher requested the inclusion of my previous work, “Kismet – or The Enchanted Stepping Stones!” which continues to receive rave reviews, including a recent one by David Goodsell in the May/June issue of “Oracle.” This means you’ll enjoy two significant works in one volume on a topic that has seen little exploration!

MAGICTALES is a compilation of magical routines paired with engaging story presentations that you can easily perform. No complicated moves or elaborate props required!
