This set is amazing, explanations are very understandable! Highly recommend.

Hey @magic.42, it has been 2 years since you got these books and I would be very interested in what you think of them ... and whether they have stayed relevant to your magic.

Cheers!

Fantastic books, I recommend them very much. Very strong and fun effects.

Sounds good. How do rate his included mem-deck effects generally?

OP described his "Thirty-Minute Memorized Deck" as "astonishing"!

Any chance you could outline that effect, without exposing . . .

It's a bit of a stretch to call it Astonishing. It some clever thinking about making one of the first stacks every magician learns (or at least aware of) into a memorised stack.

Hmmm, OK, so I won't be getting it for that reason alone it seems. In that case, if I have 'read' you correctly, it doesn't sound particularly 'astonishing'. I have had Mnemonica down for about 5 years and use it for everything mem-deck related (and some things that aren't - e.g. pick a card, any card, show your friends while my back is turned. Done, here is the deck, shuffle it in...leading into C3, etc).

I have been thinking about committing another deck to memory, just to switch things up and keep the brain noodles soft. I thought this might be a contender, but maybe not.

Nonetheless, it will remain on my (rather long) shopping list, given Allan's well deserved reputation.
