With a foreword from Looch (author of The Black Project, Simple and Direct
Mentalism) this book contains fifteen pieces of strong mentalism suitable for
stage, close-up and impromptu settings.
Contents includes:
Swami Thing - a quick opening routine I use for Close Up performances,
plus a variation from Looch.
The Ambitious Peek - a mind reading routine using nothing more than a
stack of business cards, a pen and a common gimmick. It has been described as "...an innocent looking thing, very
usable and workable, and also with great angles as it can be done practically
surrounded."
Rub-A-Dub DD - My method for Close Up Drawing Duplications, described as
"about as direct and fair as you can get" and again uses nothing more
than a stack of business cards and a pen.
Philtrum - another
simple ‘peek routine’ that allows you to actually read, not just glimpse, what
someone has secretly written on the back of one of your business cards in a
very fair and open way.
37th Deception - This is one of my pet routines and one that I almost
always use in my stage shows. The effect is that you can appear to make the
audience read the mind of a spectator on stage.
Tel. - a
routine that allows you to divine any four digit number. The method is somewhat
bold, maybe even cheeky but it is by no means high risk. If you are a fan of
methods that just make you smile, you will love this.
Nine Bob Note - a serial
number divination routine built around my gimmickless take on the classic Which
Hand? Effect
Deck Head - My NOT memorized deck. You are seemingly able to
'subconsciously memorize' a shuffled pack of cards and prove it. You then take
things further by teaching a spectator to do the same thing. No stooging and no
PS.
Thief of Thoughts - My own handling, presentation, and marking system
for Larry BeckerÃs classic Sneak Thief routine.
Love Hate - A mind reading effect that combines classic methodology with
NLP Eye Cues in a safe and usable way.
Miser's Peek Wallet - A cheap and easy to use and make alternative to a
peek wallet
Alexander Marsh is a bright man whose work will prove valuable to those
who want to play it real.
Dale A. Hildebrandt
When I first read his ideas I was delighted in the simplicity and
strength of each effect. Not only that but I could immediately see within his
writings that he was a worker.

You would be very, very hard pressed to buy this book and not be able
to take something of value from it.
