    About this ebook

    More world class magic from master magician and mentalist Ian McCoy. This publication offers his seven most recent creations which pack a massive punch and leave spectators lingering in a world of wonderment. As in previous publications you are not offered “good” card tricks - here is offered superb card magic learned from a lifetime of study. Also - as previously, every routine has a video link to both performance to live audiences and explanations. There are also links to teaching the various “sleight of hand” techniques necessary for the execution of these powerhouse routines. In effect the student is getting a DVD as well as written explanation.

    The pieces offered in this publication are of a professional nature. They are in most cases the invention of the author who has been a professional mentalist and magician for 20 years on both sides of the Atlantic. They are indeed spectacular.

      Spectacular Sleight of Hand Card Miracles - Ian McCoy

      Introduction

      Here we go again! More incredible card magic from the repertoire of yours truly. Some of these routines are my most recent creations. They all a very strong and pack a massive wallop. There is quite a lot of sleight of hand and they will require some work on the students’ part. As ever video links to performance and tuition will be most helpful.

      Every one of these routines could be happily placed in the repertoire of the best magicians on the planet. That may sound like a bold statement – but it is true. Top notch material with absolutely no gaffs. Needed? A simple deck of playing cards.

      As I have mentioned before – remember that tricks are tricks – but wonder and awe is very real. You are in the privileged position to take people to the edge of their understanding – to enable them to peer into that massive void of the unknown. It is in that space where tingling wonder is experienced. It is a taste of Nirvana.

      Time Travel

      What the audience experiences

      After s a little discussion about the concept of time travel – you place two jokers face up onto a spectators left hand. A card is chosen from the deck and very fairly placed face unseen between the jokers. The spectator picks another card – but this time it is seen and signed and returned to the deck which is placed in the spectators’ right hand.

      Picking up the jokers it is clear that the face down card was chosen before the signed card. When the card between the jokers is turned over – it is actually the second signed card!! In time
