Good begginers Book October 28, 2005 Timothy E. Converse (Santa Cruz, CA.) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Karl Fulves has been putting out these kinds of books for what seems like an eternity. They are good books for kids and even a skilled performer can pull some good material from these books. [...]
Card book December 26, 2002 2 out of 5 found this review helpful
I got this because the other reviews said how good it was, but i opened it and gave up almost immediatly. The instructions are difficult to follow.
Self-Working = No sleight of hand April 7, 2002 Jim Snapp (Wabash, IN, USA) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book, along with all the other Fulves Self-Working series are full of really great magic that can be done without years of practice. That however, doesn't mean no practice. As with any presentation before an audience, attention to instructions and good audience management are essential. This means that, just like an actor in a play, the magician-to-be must know exactly what to do and when to do it, what to say and when to say it. This requires several run-throughs with no audience. (Sound like practice to me!!) I think that 'self-working' in the title means that you can do the effects without working on sleights for several months/years before you can do anything magical. This material can be presented after a few hours practice!
Not totally self working. March 10, 2002 1 out of 10 found this review helpful
The tricks in this book are not totally self working. You have to remember a lot and tell people what to do.
Self-Working Close-Up Card Magic: 53 Foolproof tricks February 10, 2000 Alan Friedman (Alameda, California) 21 out of 21 found this review helpful
Having had no magic creating experience, it amazed me how with the clear illustrated instructions in this book, I could within a very short time have over a dozen card tricks at my command..now I've ordered Fulves' other "Self-Working" books to expand my ability to entertain and amaze others! It's really fun!
