Hey guys,
I believe this is Vlad's fourth and final release to the mentalism community. I was given a review copy of this, I must admit, but I thought I would chime in here and let you know my thoughts. This is entirely propless. Thought Passage: Audience member imagines a scene from childhood, mentalist is able to divine said scene Broken up into parts, so you can understand how to go about doing this. There are many subtleties happening all at once here, and I do not recommend this to any beginner. Experienced mentalists that love to do propless, or have had success doing propless work, like Fraser Parker's work, or Peter Turner's work, will like this. Will I perform it? Maybe not at a paid show, but I will try it out. I tried out something propless from Vlad's first release, and it went very well, so looking to give this one a go. PK Touches Deluxe Vlad has dabbled on this before, and has given you his take on the PK touch routine. I personally don't do any PK touch routine, so I am no authority to advise on this matter. I can tell you that it is very complete and comprehensive. Looks like it can play very good. If you are a fan of PK touches, this might be of interest to you The Secret Vlad says it is one of his best kept secrets. What exactly is it? This is a dangerous effect that only experienced mentalists should try, or perform. Dealing with a deceased relative, and a possible hallucination of said relative. Again, broken up into many parts so you can understand all that is at play here. Justification is made for using a deceased person, and spectator can be affected emotionally, so you must be careful if performing this. Not sure exactly what the price will be for this. But if you are looking for more propless effects, The Swan Song, will take you there. Very different range of effects, only 3, but well you get to describe scenery in Thought Passage, a PK touches routine, as well as The Secret. You can choose if you want to take this journey....though the ebook might not be for everyone, I certainly will be trying Thought Passage out. So in my thoughts, I will do 1 out of the 3 effects from this release. In Tres, Vlad's first release there was an effect that sounded similar, where you describe a nightmare to a person. Like I said above, I have done this multiple times since reading Tres years ago, and the success rate has been 85%. That is pretty good considering. I try it out every now and then as an experiment in rapport and conjunction with the sitter, and even the times it did not work, the person did not realize that something had gone wrong, because if you are good at using cold reading skills, you can always change course. Vlad, please enlight us with more information for those that are curious about this. Thanks Alex

I hope to find more time soon to add my 2 cents to what Alex already said but for now I'll second his sentiments without any reservation.
Thought Passage indeed employs many subtleties, psychological probabilities/occurences and play of word. The third part, however, reads as the real deal and I don’t dare to imagine how it must feels when this actually works for the first time; the author admits, though, that it is fairly possible to fail with this effect, but according to any BOS mentalist’s mantra ("no risk - no reward“) it is worth trying out. Only front row experience will prove whether these principles are convincing taken together and as soon as my flu will be gone I intend to test drive it. In PK Touches Deluxe Vlad again tampers with the classic PK touch routine. Like Alex I’m not an expert either but from reading the methodology there’s very little doubt that this will work out nicely. Can’t comment on originality and inspiration for this but I assume the author has done his homework and checked previous sources. The Secret, though, is a tough cookie. Dealing with a deceased relative is clearly not for everyone. And it shouldn’t be performed by everyone, either! For me, frankly spoken, that's a bit much. So I wont’t comment this last chapter in the book any further, although I’m curious how other readers will perceive that piece. Thanks OTTOEMEZZO for this farewell release, an inspiring read for sure!

Why a swan song? Why not keep it out there? Just curious.

Hi John,
The reason is because I plan to concentrate more on performing rather than sharing the my methods. Thank you everybody for your support! I just have 2 copies of "The Swan Song" remaining! -Vlad
