Nick Trost is well known for his simple, easy-to-do brand of card magic. He uses subtle moves and principles rather than difficult sleight of hand to produce entertaining card effects.

This book contains 122 of his best tricks, plus variations of these effects by fellow magicians. Most of the tricks have been gathered from his column in The New Tops and from his manuscripts, books and marketed items. All of the material has been revised and rewritten especially for this book. There are also many new, unpublished items here that are sure to delight the card magician.

Among the tricks included are such gems as Double Pinochle with an Elevator Finish, Matched Picture Cards, Eighteen-Card Poker and Blind-Sight. All of the tricks are described with easy-to-follow instructions, accompanied by 161 clear illustrations by Joseph K. Schmidt.

Here are a few of the areas covered:
  • Coincidences
  • Court Cards
  • The Four Aces
  • Gambling Tricks
  • Revealments
  • Special Decks
  • Packet Tricks
  • ESP Cards
Also included is an appendix of useful sleights and subtleties.

This is Nick Trost's best and most complete book of card magic. It is hoped you will find many worthwhile effects here to add to your repertoire.

Magical Book

For years I've heard about Nick Trost, and couldn't wait for this book to arrive.
If course ordering from Monster Magic I didn't need to wait long. (Amazing service as always).
This book is full of gems. So far I've had it a week. Every trick I read seems to be something I'd use or work with. And no knuckle busters.
Just simple direct magic as I've always heard.
Buy this book. You will not be disappointed.

Fantastic Book and even better value

Nearly 400 pages of quality material. Really well categorised.

An awful lot of tricks, techniques and references for less than £50.

Can't wait until my break in August to get stuck in!

An excellent book

I am gradually rediscovering magic as a hobby. I had come across a few packet tricks by Nick Trost which I’d always found to be very ingenious and so was interested in this book. It is absolutely packed with clever effects and I am really enjoying working my way through it. I am very far from being an accomplished card magician and so the basic sleights and other clever methods really appeal. I think the book is also very well priced for an American import and specialised publication.
