What is it about?
Created in collaboration with Tricktastic.com and Screw Loose Productions, Pandora is a forthcoming collection of off-beat and strong magic using your card case.

Liam and I have been working hard to get this book ready for everyone and in honesty, its looking awesome. As soon as Liam showed me the effects, I fell in love. One of them he showed me over 3 years ago and has kept it under wraps ever since. This is set to be one of the best PDF releases of the year!

This booklet has it all - from visual routines to the purely baffling, with detailed instructions on how to make the gimmicks required for the 10+ killer ideas that you will be performing in no time!

Visually change a mini card that is STAPLED to your card case! Heal burn marks on signed cards and the box! Make your spectators VISUALLY see the deck expand, so much so it won't fit back in the box! Expose a 'secret slit' in your card box, before it magically seals up when a spectator tries it!

These routines are just a sample of the effects inside!!!

Includes 'Graffitti', Liam's signature 'card in window' card case with the double change that not even magicians see coming!

All the routines leave the card case totally examinable, you clean and your spectators busted! Coming soon to a website near you. If you are near this one, anyway!

Rating: 8/10

Pandora is a collection of very practical, very commercial and very clever magic from Liam Montier presented by Screw Loose Productions. It mostly uses one simple gimmick which anyone can make very easily. All the routines are constructed well and are high impact magic which is very easy to perform.

Right from the beginning you can tell Liam has spent a lot of time developing and working with this gimmick. He teaches clearly how to make it and it can be done in a matter of seconds.

Every routine using this gimmick is clever and easy to do. There are eight in total, three of those bonus tricks. I especially like Half Cut (In which a card stapled to the card case visually changes into a selection). I think it seems so impossible but at the same time it is easy to do. I also like Graffiti very much. In fact, this has now become part of my regular act. You can see a video of this on the demo to truly appreciate how eye popping it is. These are my personal favourites but every single routine on the book is strong and practical – including the bonus routines.

The ebook is very well presented and laid out with lots of high quality images. The text is well written and easy to understand and the pictures go perfectly with the text. The design has been done very well and both Liam and Jamie have done a very good job with it.

In terms of price, I think this collection of ideas is great value. You are paying £10 for a massive amount of magic you can and will use. I would recommend this to anyone. If you are looking for something new and different with a simple gimmick (or even if you aren’t) you will get something useful from this.

8/10.
