Hi All,
Okay finally got the chance to sit down and read this.... and it is exactly what I thought it would be..'brilliant thinking' Here is some information about what you will get to riddle your mind with in the book: Foreword By Peter Turner Introduction by Luke Jermay Effect: There’s a time for lying: A stunning spectator as mind reader effect featuring several utility moves with a wide range of applications. Into the void: An impossibly clean and direct “think a card” routine. The routine is very logical, very direct and very fooling. If you perform mentalism with playing cards, this is destined to go into your repertoire. Sensory Intelligence: A beautiful close up graphology routine. The routine compromises of three increasingly powerful reveals using three business cards. Several variations of the routine are given, including a drawing duplication finale. The routine can be performed entirely impromptu and also includes a technology free “which-hand” finale. Emphatic Touch: A close up, self contained take on the “blister” effect. Takes only moments to build and uses items you are sure to have. The routine provides an astonishing way to leave the spectator with your business card. Once built you are likely to take this everywhere. Crooked: A direct and logical approach to “Psychic Poker” or "Tell reading". A very direct and simple and demonstrations of mind reading at the card table, using just a regular deck and minimal sleight of hand. Jigsaw: A signature effect for a long time. This routine combines many classic mentalism ideas and some from the card table to make an insanely direct “think a card” with no physical cards present. Can be performed virtually impromptu and prop less. The Becoming: A very “real” approach to getting inside a spectators mind. Performed properly this can look like genuine psychic ability. Future Prophecies: A very versatile routine, giving the performer a risk free way of practising psychological forces with a guaranteed prediction kicker. The routine uses everyday office items, with some versatile ideas to be adapted to routines you already do. Glitch: A massively streamlined approach to the single “Card in Wallet” idea. Fans of the plot are sure to enjoy this. The work and ideas involved in this could be easily adapted to your current version of the routine. Dead Cut Redux: A very fooling close up routine using playing cards with progressively more impossible stages. Using minimum sleight of hand and a normal deck this has been a favourite prelude to show how the performer gained his intuitive abilities. Every effect has been cleverly thought out, made simple and workable and for that reason it gets my recommend. Great stuff Steven All the best R |

Is this book a generalist's synopsis of what appears in every other general mentalism book ever? Why are there no performances anywhere? Even the trailer is a bunch of nothing. At $65 there must be *something* but the marketing fails to present what it is in any meaningful way. Outside of this book and its differently-named predecessor from a few months back, even Google doesn't know who he is.

Hi
Here is a link, my apologies I thought I had included it with my write up: http://www.thought-reader.com/ Even tho Stevens name is not a household one he is known amongst mentalists mainly in UK, he has some great material. Method for me was a great read, nice up to date ideas to dabble with. All the best R |

Hey guys,
Agree on the aforementioned customer service by Steven, he's a top notch guy with good business ethics, which I respect heavily. I have been digesting this lovely little book between a few other things that have been sent my way and hope to have a video review prepared very shortly. For those of you who are still on the fence about purchasing Steven's book, I will basically lay it out for you by saying this, if you want close up sure fire clever mentalism that is chock full of interesting effective ideas then you shouldn't pass this up. I'll post a more in depth synopsis on the video, pardon my sluggish work ethic to get the video recorded, this time of the year has me pretty busy between working my way to becoming a Distinguished Toastmaster, re-branding myself and everything else I have going on. Hope everyone is enjoying Method as much as I am and can't wait to share more thoughts! XX, -Jakob |
