Dear all

Does anyone out there own these books by Peter Duffie and Robin Robertson, do they continue good effects? If so what are your best effects out of the books.

Thanks in advance

I have all 3 and they are very good. I recently got Diamonds From Coal and so far it looks very good. There are many moves and sleights and concepts in this series that you won't find in Card College or other texts. The stuff on Gilbreath and CATO are excellent.

I agree fully with what have already been said !

I also have all 3 and especially likes the
way of first presenting a principle, sleight
or move, and then different effects using it.

If you don't have any of the books I think a good
idea would be to start out with the 2 Conspiracy
books first and get the Diamonds later on.

Thats why I also like the books, each chapter starts with a move or principle, and then envoles into effects using them.
Very much like Royal Road To Card Magic.

What I don't have is any of the Duffie e-books,
but if they are as good as these 3 books I'd
be interested to get some of them.

Anyone have any advice ?

If you can, get all Peter Duffie's ebooks. I have all of them and what I can say, all thumbs-up materials.

Most of them can be done impromptu and unprepared cards.

Best of all, quite many of the effects are powerful.

Best Wishes,

I love the style of these books. Learn a principle and then learn what tricks you can do with it. I find it a solid educational approach.

Highly recommended!
