ALL COPIES WERE HAND-AUTOGRAPHED BY MICHAEL BREGGAR

A collection of easy to perform mentalism routines with unique methods and presentations.

Form Marc DeSouza’s foreword: “…this is some of the cleverest material I have seen in quite some time. The humorous premises, in fact, often 'set-up' the audience for an even more effective knock-out blow at the climax! Even if you work more straight-forward, this material contains ideas you can use, and the book is filled with one-liners that can be quite effective in any show.”

Routines include:

Influence-Enza: A Nick Trost effect takes a few hairpin turns with your audience driving under your influence! From a shuffled deck of cards, two spectators create three piles of face-down cards in front of little signs marked 1, 2 and 3. A third spectator removes a card sight unseen from the balance of the deck and seals it in an envelope safe from any sleighty hands. Free choice? Not quite. You have managed to influence the spectators so that the number of red and black cards in each of the three piles exactly match what's written inside each of the little signs! And little sign #3 also has the name of the card sealed away in the envelope! 

A Day at the Hospital: Using the principles described in Influence-Enza, your three spectators correctly sort out boy and girl babies into three separate nurseries. You have also managed somehow to influence the selection of a name for the hospital administrator's new baby! 

If It's Good Enough for Bill Murray: How about this: an entertaining and highly effective three phase routine with ESP cards! This is definitely not your average Ghostbuster's matching card effect! 

Drawing on Emotions (ReDOnE): Michael revisits one his most talked about effects from his book, The Five Roads to Vegas. It has been restructured to work in all venues. A drawing duplication without a drawing? It really seems like real mind-reading. 

Another Day in Para-Dice: Revised from the "Auto-Magic" column, you divine the total of three dice thrown. Twice. 

Gardner and Berg Walk into a Bar and Get into a Fight with Vernon and Don Alan: What starts out as a fabulous "Do-as-I-Do" effect ends up with two extraordinary finales. An impossible centerpiece effect. Unless, of course, you are a psychic! 

Award Season: A trip to Hollywood where you, the mysterious mind-reader, deduce the Academy Award winning movie merely thought of by the startled spectator. 

Never Play Poker with a Martian: You reveal that Martians are great poker players because they supernaturally influence which cards are dealt to, and played by, the other players. You demonstrate this by Martianally influencing your helper into dealing a royal flush under impossible - and impossibly funny - conditions. 

Unfortunate Cookie: An update of one of the most popular effects from Michael's The Linking Ring column. Your assistant is given 25 fortune cookie fortunes. They are all rather dark and macabre except for the one your helper selects by pure chance. 

The ACAAN Deck: Yep. This is the real McCoy. The spectator names a card and then a number. They then deal down to that number from a deck untouched by you. And, there's their card. Works cleanly 80% of the time. Built in outs cover the other 20%. You'll make up this gaffed deck once, but you will use it forever. 

Counter Fits: Your volunteer is given the psychic power to discern real from counterfeit money. They get to keep the bills they identify, so they better be right! Did I mention the bills are sealed in opaque envelopes? 

(L)Ego Trip: An unbelievable closer. Your helper merely thinks of a typical Lego object (such as a simple car, airplane, house, cat, etc.) and you assemble it. Without even looking at the Lego blocks! And the kicker is nothing short of impossible!

"I am delighted by this book. Not only the methods, but many brand-new themes. Mentalists look for this, as they can tire themselves and the audience with seemingly repeated effects. Michael has dug deep, and I look forward to using some of these on stage. BTW, for those who care, there are many new methods. Michael knows what he is writing about. Confident, sincere, original. I love it." … Marc Salem
