Don't worry, I havent got mine yet either. It's strange that England got it before NYC. Oh, well, once again, maybe tomorrow.

Better postal system me thinks. It's well worth the wait! That really doesn't help, does it?

Got mine yesterday. After one read through, my feeling is that while I probably won't use much of the material personally, the things that I will use are fantastic.

I made one of the items right away, and it went immediately into my never-leave-home-without-it kit. A lot of the methods are of the "You're gonna hate me for this, but..." variety, and some people will. But others will love it and be able to use it to great effect.

Every problem contains the seeds of its own solution. Unfortunately every problem also contains the seeds of an infinite number of non-solutions, so that first part really isn't super helpful.

I got mine today.

I REALLY like it. It's some kind of “Telekinetic Pocket Guide”, very technical, smart, simple. The effects are easy to reproduce.

If you don’t like switches and gimmicks, it is not for you. Otherwise, it is full of great Special Effects.

Congratulations, Sean!

I have a variation of the pent-ultimate effect in the works already. To be honest, the bending routines weren't really impressive to me, or at least I didn't think I learnt anything new. The highlight was the tesla experiment and his use of d'***** in various effects. Clever. I might end up buying a d'***** just for these effects.

Isn't it weird how all these books come out and there are still typos and run-on sentences? Especially the smaller books. You would think they would be easy to catch in the editing phase.

Hello Sean,

Is it still time to order the book directly from you? Let me know as I would prefer to give support directly to the author. Send me a PM.

Friendly yours,

Martin

OK, so I found an alternative to the omni bender, because for some reason we don't do the bits needed over here in the UK (grrrr), but it don't half hurt!

Finally got the book. Some very cool ideas in here, including the one with the ice, pun intended. Really liked the pen ideas and the stuff with the ring.

For the price, you get a lot of ideas, so it's definitely worth getting.

Has anyone else still not received their copy of the book? I was one of the people who pre-ordered from Sean, and have still not received a copy of the book. Sean, perhaps you can help me out here and let me know if my copy has been shipped out yet.

Thanks.

Zach

Zach, yours was one of the first to go out.

Email me. I will address this issue promptly. I apologize on behalf of the Canadian Postal Service. ;-)

Can someone please send a PM my way and list all the necessary gaffs and gimmicks required to perform the effects? I'm falling for all the hype and I'd like to make sure I have everything needed to test this material out for myself. Any help would be much appreciated.

I have had this book since the beginning of the summer, whenever it was first on Hank's site. If you haven't ordered it yet, call Hank Lee's and make sure they have it... they probably do. No need to wait for something that's already been here MONTHS ago. later -Jesse

I would say the effects from the book are not impromptu at all...
You will need some setups, prior preparations, and some 'simple' gimmicked items.
Definitely do-able though

I wouldnt say that's true...

You can do a ton of stuff ungimmicked.

North of the border
Metranome revelation
The telsa experiment (basic effect at least...)
Pent (need a pen)

And a bunch of other stuff too. You just need some note cards.
