The latest from Rick and Friends is LUNA, the Colney Hatch Mental Hospital Patient registry.

• If you read the ad from Outlaw Effects' website, you'll get a better description than I can give. Everything is true, and they'll hit all the fine points that I'd miss. You can consider that a real review of the product, because the website is dead-on.

• The book is high quality, done up to be 72 years old. Looks it, feels it, obviously NOT a mint copy of anything, but continually rescued thru the years to finally end up in your hands.

• Learning is surprisingly easy. They've subtly made your work very easy. No forces, peeks, etc.

• Can be played an infinite number of ways. The phrase 'Limited only to your imagination' is true here.

• They have incorporated 'webs' to the coding (I'm inventing terms here) so that you can go from one item to the next, or perhaps perceive symptoms of one patient, and the cause of those symptoms might be discovered to be the next door patient.

• Very easy to seem accurate as you reveal items from their lives that aren't in the book...these will be believed because you also reveal impressions that ARE correct. The audience will assume hits on the traits/occurrances that they have no way of authenticating, because of the correctness of the ones that they can authenticate.

In my opinion, well worth the money, well done, well thought out, well executed. If you want to exhibit the possession of real psychic talent, this one will do it for you, and let you play all you want along the way. Very versatile.

I give it a 5 out of 5, a 10 out of 10, 2 Swamis up, However you like: It's what Rick and Dr Todd promised. More kudos for Outlaw. They're still going strong.

Thank you Tom!
I want to clarify this little piece here from Toms review:

•" Very easy to seem accurate as you reveal items from their lives that aren't in the book...these will be believed because you also reveal impressions that ARE correct. The audience will assume hits on the traits/occurrances that they have no way of authenticating, because of the correctness of the ones that they can authenticate."



Everything in the book that they see, IS revealed, accurately. What Tom is eluding to are additional aspects of the "storytelling".

Additional "pieces" of their lives that are woven into your presentation, and correspond perfectly to what the spec is seeing.

Luna has more information that can be revealed than any other book out there.

Once again, the beauty of Outlaw book tests is they allow the performer to step out of the box and use their skills as performers to create a true experience for their audience.

Thanks again Tom for taking the time to do this very nice review.

Rick

Thanks Tom! Rick and I worked hard on this product, particularly on the options for presentation...I am very pleased that you like it!

Just a quick reminder - this is also being reviewed and discussed over in the Penny's section. I shall not say a whole lot here as I have said much over there. I will, however, say this - Everyone interested in booktest, predictions, dark and bizarre routines, really cool old books, etc. should get this! It's really good!

Chad

Thanks for the heads up
