I've always been scared/wary of palming due to lack of confidence and poor illustrations and explanations in the books I have (admittedly very old books!)
Really pleased I took the plunge on this book, it's excellent. Love the writing style by John, makes it very 'readable' with nice humourous touches.
Photos and explanations are as good as you can wish for.

A great book
If you're looking for a book that will improve your palming, and give you ideas to improve effects then this is a great book with detailed instructions and photos to follow, but if your after a book that contains loads of tricks then its not for you. Would definitely recommend picking it up, I'm only a few chapters in and already have some nice ideas.

Product is great as you would expect from a Vanishing inc book. Service from Alex a Monster Magic is first rate. Ive bought magic from all over the world and no company has better service than Monster Magic. If Alex stocks it and has it in hes my first choice every time from now on.
Choosing a selection results in a full page refresh.
Looks fantastic and is an extremely convincing visual change. Not too difficult to do but needs practice to make it look really good so hoping to be good enough to perform it soon.
Well we all know we can trust bycicle standard (although you can't trust my spelling)
But we can all trust monster magic for speedy delivery with no issues. It has helped me out a few times especially when Ive forgotten to re stock.
It’s a nice trick but it can only be performed sat down at the table with the spectators. I should have read the add copy more closely. If you do more strolling magic this is one to give a miss. Nice trick to do if you are table hopping and have the opportunity to sit down. Unfortunately I feel this will end up in my bottom drawer.
This is a high quality utility device that will allow you to “wow” audience members. Very easy to use so you can focus on your performance. Highly recommend the Zap wallet.
