Way too many to mention. The sad part is I have worn-out volumes of books on card magic lying here and there and have yet to even crack open my copy of "Finnegann's Wake." The shame.
Thought: Why does man kill? He kills for food. And not only food: frequently there must be a beverage.

Too many to list. The ones I go back to the most are Paul Harris Art of Astonishment, Giobbi's Card College, and Bannon's Impossibilia and Smoke and Mirrors.

The ones I read most often excluding lecture notes are:
Art of Astonishment Vol. 1-3 Revolutionary Card Technique Scams And Fantasies With Cards I buy more VHS and DVDs than I do books.

Mark Wilson Book of Magic (the little one) A great general overview.
Card College 1-5, (Royal Road if you can't afford that five). Bar none the best instruction on Cards. Strong Magic (Ortiz) Good place to start on presentation. The Classic Magic of Larry Jennings Jennings '67 (Much more advanced) Cardshark (Ortiz) Darwin Ortiz at the Card Table Scams and Fantasies (Also Ortiz) Fictions (Pit Hartling) Additional Texts Art of Astonishment by Paul Harris (Lots of good offbeat stuff that amazes) Coins Bobo's Coin book Kaufmans' Coinmagic Roth's Expert Coin Magic Complete Cups and Balls (Ammar) And how could I forget. Derek Dingle's Complete Works. Truly aweseome albeit truly difficult to follow book. |
