Introducing ODYSSEY 2.0 by Chris Philpott with Jules Philpott. Ten killer effects in one beautiful magazine.
Odyssey became a fan-favorite because it delivered something rare: a prop that feels completely real, yet contains enough miracles to build an entire act. Odyssey 2.0 is the upgraded evolution - refined, expanded, and enhanced with new features and contributions from Steve Valentine and Shawn Farquhar.
This is not a prop that looks like a magazine.
This is a gorgeous, believable luxury travel magazine... that just happens to be filled with miracles.
Designed by Jules Philpott (a professional graphic designer), Odyssey 2.0 looks and feels exactly like something you'd pick up in an airport lounge or a premium hotel lobby - but in your hands it becomes a complete close-up or stage weapon.
TEN EFFECTS. ONE MAGAZINE.
Perform a full mentalism set with a single flat-packing magazine - perfect for workers, pros, and performers who demand maximum impact with minimal carrying.
FEATURED EFFECT: "DRUNK MONKEY"
A spectator becomes increasingly "drunk"... simply by reading the names of drinks.
Now upgraded with:
New pages suggested by Shawn Farquhar to make the spectator sober again
Steve Valentine's powerhouse moment: sober them up by actually pouring coffee from the magazine
A BOOK TEST THAT SETS A NEW BAR FOR REALISM
Odyssey 2.0's book test feels real because it is real - the articles genuinely match their travel destinations: Paris, Tokyo, Luxor, Bali, Ibiza and more.
PLUS YOU CAN:
Take away someone's ability to read
Reveal a thought-of word with randomly chosen Scrabble tiles
Make one spectator read another's mind
Perform Arthur Emerson's "Pegasus Page"
Move your audience with Chris Philpott's emotionally charged "Unhypnotised"
...and five more powerful effectsTHE PROP YOU'LL ACTUALLY WANT TO HAND OUT
108 pages on glossy 100-lb paper
Glossy laminated cover

Suitable for close-up and stage
TRAINING

Ten devastating mentalism effects... hidden inside one beautiful travel magazine."One of the greatest mentalism tools of all time!" - David Penn
"One of the best effects that's ever been released for mentalists! It allows you to do a 20-minute mentalism act with nothing but this magazine. Worth its weight in gold!" - Craig Petty
"F#%&ing Brilliant!" - Banachek
"Odyssey is an incredible tool that looks like the genuine article and is packed with countless possibilities. It went immediately into my show at Hidden Wonders!" - Shawn Farquhar
"I've been using the heck out of Odyssey in my corporate work and it's been an absolute treasure for me. Such an amazing tool!" - Cole Blalock
This is fantastic, it looks so unassuming like aany magazine you would pick up in the travel section of WH Smith. I love it has so many effects that you can use it again for repeat shows down the line and it takes next to no space in my case. As always, insanely fast delivery from Alex.

Blown away
I don't think I can add anything that hasn't already been said about this superb product.
Personally, I'm not as keen on a couple of the "inspirational" effects since they don't massively suit my style (perhaps more for an American audience?), but that is just me.
What really shocked me was I ordered this about 11pm on Good Friday and it was delivered to me about 10am EASTER SUNDAY!! That is above and beyond. Even Amazon Prime could learn a thing or two from MM.

Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant!
5/5 Stars – Odyssey 2.0 by Chris Philpott is a game-changer!
I’ve been performing mentalism for years, and Odyssey 2.0 is hands-down one of the smartest, most practical releases I’ve ever added to my working repertoire. Chris Philpott took everything that made the original Odyssey brilliant and elevated it even further—refined handling, new killer ideas from legends like Steve Valentine and Shawn Farquhar, and a genuinely beautiful luxury travel magazine design that looks 100% legitimate in any setting.
Right out of the gate, the production quality blew me away. It’s a high-gloss, professionally designed magazine (shoutout to Jules Philpott for the stunning layout) that feels and looks exactly like something you’d pick up in a first-class lounge or upscale hotel. No one suspects a thing. Yet inside are ten devastating mentalism effects that can easily fill a full 20-minute professional act—book tests, mind reading, the upgraded “Drunk Monkey” (which now has that incredible coffee sobering moment—pure gold), and so much more.
What I love most is how versatile and performer-friendly it is. It packs completely flat (perfect for travel or walk-around gigs), resets quickly, and the methods are clever, reliable, and angle-proof for close-up or stage. Every effect lands strong—spectators are stunned, laughing, and completely engaged. The “Drunk Monkey” alone gets huge reactions every time; people lose their minds when they realize they can’t read normally after just following along.
If you’re looking for a single, elegant prop that delivers a complete, commercial mentalism set with zero suspicious props or electronics, Odyssey 2.0 is worth every penny. It’s become my go-to opener and closer in so many shows. Chris has created something truly special here—one of the greatest mentalism tools of the modern era.
Highly, highly recommended. Get it before your next gig—you’ll thank yourself later

The Swiss Army Knife of Mentalism
This is a beautiful magazine , the production values are superb. Chris has taken a few of his great effects and stuffed them into one magazine alongside a book test and a Pegasus page and bits of other effects. The 100th Monkey premise really punches through and all is very well explained in the 2 hour tutorial. Great value!

Guessed how this was done prior to purchase but still worth it. The cards are good quality, its super easy and will certainly be using it during the quite period after the meal at weddings when there is not a lot to photograph (I'm a wedding photographer who does a few tricks if there is not a magician there). Would have been nice if it came in a plastic wallet rather than an envelope with the name of the trick on it but I have some knocking around and you may want to get one if you purchase this. Overall usable, will hopefully get good reactions and easy to do. I'm off for a pint now to try it out on a few folks.
Another simple but effective little trick from Tenyo. Very clever and dead simple to do. Good price, fun and baffling what more could you want? I love most of the Tenyo tricks and this is no exception. I wish they would also do more premium versions that were metal rather than plastic but I suppose that is part of the joy of them.
I tried this at a booking for a family halloween party in the local pub and went down a storm.
Really funny when the adults could not make the sound of the animals
