“I think this is the best volume yet.” – Steve Beam

“I’ve never been a fan of show-off ‘over-technical’ long-winded card magic designed to fool only the boys. (Notice that I use the word fool and not entertain. Think on that!) It’s often laden with esoteric, angley and non-practical sleights. Nick Trost’s work, in contrast, is not easy for ‘ease’ sake; but it’s all (yes, all) practical and well-constructed to entertain laymen. Mr. Trost doesn’t shun sleights either, but-thank goodness-he doesn’t overuse them. He’s kept his eye on the ball that magic is to entertain (and mystify) laymen with. If, along the way, it happens to fool other magicians-fine. But, that (I guess) is just a mere bonus.” – Paul Gordon
