Not only is he a fantastic magician and member of the prestigious \"Flicking Fingers,\" but he is also a successful stand-up comedian in his native Germany. We are incredibly excited to release his first full-length book in English: \u003cb\u003eEvidence of a Well Spent Life\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Guy Hollingworth writes in the foreword, there are lots of books on card magic, but very few of them focus on longer, structured routines the way \u003cb\u003eEvidence of a Well Spent Life\u003c\/b\u003e does. You will discover entertaining and deceptive card routines that weave multiple effects into a single, coherent performance piece.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach routine has a theatrical structure, with each moment building on the others to a powerful and memorable climax. For example, in \"Better Safe than Sorry 3\", three cards are found despite the deck being secured with rubber bands. The effect is then repeated, under test conditions, and the final card appears folded into quarters inside a sealed plastic box secured with rubber bands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHelge's structuring also makes the routines more deceptive. In \"Eight Ahead!\", Helge takes the One Ahead principle to the extreme and gets miles ahead of the audience. Four signed cards are lost and found in a variety of ways before transforming into Aces. The selections are then found in four impossible locations: sandwiched between two cards, in the card case, in your wallet, and in a matchbox.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlong with the incredible routines, Helge has also included original sleights that are perfect for stand-up, close-up, or even strolling performers (many of them have an accompanying QR code to show you what they look like) and several essays to improve your magic. You will get real insights from Helge on using humor for deception, adapting card magic for stand-up, and how to construct your magic. (His essay on how to treat spectators should be a must-read for every serious performer.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book also includes Helge's work on creating signed duplicate cards. Not only will you learn Helge's work on the method, but he teaches you multiple applications, including a killer Brainwave, an impossible Torn and Restored, and one of the strongest and most fooling Traveler's routines we have ever seen. Each copy of the book includes eight special cards to get you started performing these routines right away.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhether you are interested in performing card magic on the stage, playing around with signed duplicates, or are just looking for card magic with a great structure, \u003cb\u003eEvidence of a Well Spent Life\u003c\/b\u003e is the perfect book to add to your shelf.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFull Table of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eForeword- Guy Hollingworth\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction - Helge Thun\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChapter 1: Single Cards\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstant Camera Card\u003cbr\u003eBulkoki Reloaded\u003cbr\u003eHumor as Deception\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChapter 2: Technique\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAction Fan Palm\u003cbr\u003eThe Bent Cop Transfer\u003cbr\u003eCard in Mathbox - Three Loading Methods\u003cbr\u003eHands up!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChapter 3: Beauty of Complexity\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBetter Safe than Sorry 3\u003cbr\u003eStrangers or Friends?\u003cbr\u003eThe Flying Four\u003cbr\u003eEight Ahead!\u003cbr\u003ePockets Full of Presents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChapter 4: The Duplicate Principle\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Signatures\u003cbr\u003e4 Card Brainwave\u003cbr\u003eFree Choice\u003cbr\u003eCornererd\u003cbr\u003eRound the Corner\u003cbr\u003eFilling the Gap\u003cbr\u003eThe Cloth of Death\u003cbr\u003eDuplicate Travelers\u003cbr\u003eBoxed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChapter 5: Encore\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClear Voyage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Murphy's Magic Supplies, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48400482140330,"sku":"EVIDENCEWELLSPENT","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2577\/2202\/files\/79705-full.png?v=1781227232"},{"product_id":"maestro-by-john-shryock","title":"Maestro by John Shryock","description":"Step into the fascinating world of magic with John Shryock's new book, Maestro.

One that hasn't happened before and sets the magic and mentalism world on fire. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn other cases, it's a concept. While this may or may not be in terms of effect, it inevitably has something to do with the method. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSometimes it's an effect wherein the effect-to-method ratio is so beyond all reason that its popularity among performers is almost automatic. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn still other cases, it can be as simple as a premise that grabs the magic world's imagination and just won't let go. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere are numerous other reasons to go with these. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI won't speculate specifically why the subject of today's announcement has both met and exceeded all of the above scenarios. Still, there's no question that, if ever there was a 'classic' in the world of mentalism, this is it. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn fact, if every mentalist were to put out a 'top ten' effects list - from literally every effect in all of mentalism - THIS effect would be number one on the vast majority of lists. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeedless to say, when it comes to mentalism, this is a very important subject. The premise itself dates back well before the magic and mentalism world became aware of it. The underlying concept dates back nearly one hundred years before the mentalism world had ever even heard of it. At least one performer was known to be doing some form of the piece at least fifty years before the mentalism world at large knew anything about it. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs of this writing, that makes the overall existence of this idea and premise nearly one hundred and ninety years old. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first publication of this piece was deemed one of the top one hundred events in all of magic during the entire twentieth century. That publication was comprised entirely of one sheet of paper, and yet it was one of the most important events in all of magic during that one-hundred-year period. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is with great pleasure and pride that I announce the publication of the most extensive and comprehensive work on what is perhaps the single most important mentalism effect ever published. There isn't another book like this in the entire literature of mentalism. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis effect has frequently been described as 'the single greatest effect in all of mentalism.' \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd now, for the first time, there is a collection - a MASSIVE collection - dealing entirely with that one incredible effect! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen trying to decide on a name for this ground-breaking publication, one thought kept coming to mind.

That one page sent ripples through the mentalism world that continue unabated to this day. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom that day to this, virtually every notable mentalist, from the other side of town to the other side of the planet, has performed some version of this incredible plot. Succinctly put, pseudo-psychometry is an act wherein the performer is able to deduce elements of an audience member, including aspects of their personality and life, as well as their identity, solely through contact with an object that has been in their possession. This process is known as 'psychometry' - sensing vibrations of an individual through an object or other means associated with that person. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere are a ton of directions that this premise has taken over the decades, and they are all explored in depth in the pages of The Greatest. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHere are the statistics \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOver 200 entries \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16 chapters \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e440 pages \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOver 420 references in bibliography \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003ePlus, there is a mountain of tools, techniques, and methods throughout the book.

And from this question sprang a body of magic that has astonished vast audiences in Spain and Latin America when performed on radio and television, on stage and close up. It is magic that has fooled both the public and master magicians. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsing only a few playing cards, pieces of paper and other common objects as props, audiences are led through a variety of entertaining processes that lead to their utter amazement. Through clever principles, old and new, combined with cunning psychology and ground-breaking strategies, Juan Tamariz makes magic happen in everyone's hands. He fools people into amazing themselves! Further, as you follow the radio transcripts in these pages, he will fool you, too. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo open this book and join the amazed.

The magic leaves Tamariz's hands and settles in their own! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book collects over forty such tricks and presentations, all refined and tested through professional performance. Close associate Gema Navarro, under the guidance of Juan Tamariz, has meticulously transcribed presentations from tapes of numerous radio broadcasts. The transcripts are so detailed, they first let the reader fool himself, and then give him the information necessary to entertain and astonish his audiences, and the tools to devise many other effects that happen entirely in their hands and heads. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eScattered in the literature of magic is a scant number of participation effects suitable for performance on radio and television; and those tricks are sought and coveted by professionals.

Richard has always loved reading stories about other magicians' lives and we're hoping you do, also.
