This sounds like a compilation of his smaller booklets he released throughout the years.

This is at the top of my "must buy" list. I find it interesting that, while the material is all different, many of the chapter headings are the same as what is used in The Card Magic of Nick Trost. Put these two volumes together and you've got one incredibly comprehensive collection of magic from one of my favorite creators. Very exciting, indeed!

Huge news for Trost fans........or anybody into card magic for that matter. It's only AFTER you've got a hold of a selection of Trost material that you realize just how amazing the guy really is.
What is MOST interesting though is the sub-heading......"Volume 1" Richard, are there plans for a Volume 2, 3, ? Also Richard, if you can, who published this edition? |

Silverking, H & R Magic Books is publishing. Our first major publication since The Magic of Paul Potassy, now almost out of print (we have less than a dozen copies in stock). The Nick Trost is the first of a projected multi-volume series from him.

Is there a possibility of a pre-order?
This is definitely a March-Must-Buy-Book item aka the MMBB item.
For those who believe, no explanation is necessary. For those who do not, none will suffice.

In the tricket packets section I think appear some marketed effects years ago, such as Bigfoot or Australian Aces.
Mr. Hatch, the waiting until march is going to be hard. |

Mexican Monte is a marketed effect. And a good one at that!

You just go the the H&R Books website and order it as you would any other book.
There's a clear note as to when the book will ACTUALLY ship (March), but you can order it right now if you want to. I did a couple of days ago, and it all worked fine. |

I can't wait for this one. I still remember I traded my 5x5 Japan for The Card Magic of Nick Trost.
I LOVE NICK TROST!
