Herin Freeholder is a young student at the Institute for Magic in Kress, capital city of the Empire. When his magic goes badly awry, Herin believes he has killed a fellow student and flees the school, fearful that he will be arrested and executed. He meets a mysterious stranger named Shadow who begins to teach him levels of magic he would never have learned at the school, and in return Herin aids Shadow in his clandestine activities in the city. In the course of his duties, Herin rescues a young woman named Ilsa, a tavern worker who is unaware that she can perform magic, an ability thought to be beyond the capabilities of women. Together, Herin, Shadow, and Ilsa travel far to the north, hoping to find a safe place to live. Unfortunately, the Empire comes under a sudden attack from its neighbor and the trio are swept up in a war of survival, a war where their combined magical skills might mean the difference between life and death. Herin learns that the more magic he acquires, the harsher his challenges. It seems that his ability is making his life harder rather than easier, and he understands that this reality will be the true test of whether or not he deserves the title of magician.

In the vein of Neil Strauss’ The Game and Joshua Foer’s Moonwalking with Einstein comes the fascinating story of one man’s colorful, mysterious, and personal journey into the world of magic, and his unlikely invitation into an underground secret society of revolutionary magicians from around the world. Magic Is Dead is Ian Frisch’s head-first dive into a hidden world full of extraordinary characters and highly guarded secrets. It is a story of imagination, deception, and art that spotlights today’s most brilliant young magicians—a mysterious club known as the52, who are revolutionizing an ancient artform under the mantra Magic Is Dead. Ian brings us with him as he not only gets to know this fascinating world, but also becomes an integral part of it. We meet the52’s founding members—Laura London, Daniel Madison, and Chris Ramsay—and explore their personal demons, professional aspirations, and what drew them to their craft. We join them at private gatherings of the most extraordinary magicians working today, follow them to magic conventions in Las Vegas and England, and discover some of the best tricks of the trade. We also encounter David Blaine; hang out with Penn Jillette; meet Dynamo, the U.K.’s most famous magician; and go behind the scenes of a Netflix magic show. Magic Is Dead is also a chronicle of magic’s rich history and how it has changed in the internet age, as the young guns embrace social media and move away from the old-school take on the craft. As he tells the story of the52, and his role as its most unlikely member, Ian reveals his own connection with trickery and deceit and how he first learned the elements that make magic work from his poker-playing mother. He recalls their adventures in card rooms and casinos after his father’s sudden death, and shares a touching moment that he had, as a working journalist, with his childhood idol Shaquille O’Neal. “Magic—the romanticism of the inexplicable, the awe and admiration of the unexpected—is an underlying force in how we view the world and its myriad possibilities,” Ian writes. As his journey continues, Ian not only becomes a performer and creator of magic—even fooling the late Anthony Bourdain during a chance encounter—he also cements a new brotherhood, and begins to understand his relationship with his father, fifteen years after his death. Written with psychological acuity and a keen eye for detail, Magic Is Dead is an engrossing tale full of wonder and surprise.

Introduction Magic has been a part of my life for well over 25 years, since I received my first magic kit when I was four years old. I have been performing it since then and performing it professionally (getting paid for it) since the age of 15. I have been giving lessons as well to young aspiring magicians for the last eleven years. I feel like I have a lot of knowledge to offer about the field of magic, and quite a few tips to offer as far as public speaking and performing in general. Throughout this book you will read about my own personal experiences as well as things that I've witnessed, as well as an array of tips that will help you if you're serious about pursuing magic as a career or even just as a hobby. I will give you ways to avoid negativity and get the most out of all your experiences so that you can learn and grow and be the best performer you can be. I will go into detail and explore the other side of magic that people don't normally talk about. When you shop for magic, tricks and secrets are what usually pops up and it's also what a budding magician usually wants to know. With so many new websites popping up and new tricks being "created" every day; it's sometimes hard not to get sucked up into the flashy world of "new effects". There are thousands of magicians trying to create and sell new magic every day. They come up with a new handling on an old concept, shoot a deceiving video, put it on a website with a hefty price tag and they think they're "inventors". I don't want to sound like a crazy old man yelling at kids to get off his lawn, so I will admit that some definitely are, however, most are not. I will go more into that later. There is more to magic than just secrets. There is more to magic than just the stuff you see on television and the internet. There is a whole other world behind the scenes that takes years to learn through experience after experience. My goal is to give you a jump start to all that so maybe you can benefit and learn from my experiences and possibly save yourself some headaches, time, and yes- money. So, this book is geared toward beginners. Of course a person with any level of experience is welcome to read it. To this day I still try to read anything about magic I can get my hands on. It was written, however, with the novice in mind. If you are just beginning your journey into the world of magic, you are about to embark on a fantastic fun-filled journey worth every minute of your time spent on seemingly endless practice alone in your room. Magic is a worthwhile and relatively uncommon talent these days. It's more than just a novelty act at a child's birthday party. Adults are partaking in the enjoyment more than ever. You'll soon be known as "the magic guy" or girl. People will always request you to display your talent and you'll be more than happy to accommodate. You will no doubt search daily for more and more tricks to perform, but before you do I will offer you the opportunity to learn more than secrets. More than tricks. I will give you tips and tools about the "other stuff" you would normally only get with years of experience and bits and pieces here and there in chat rooms, message boards, conversations, lectures, and most of all, trial and error. Others have briefly touched on some of this material before, but I will dig much deeper and go further in depth. So without any further delay, here is, The Back of the Deck!

Mark Vale is besieged by financial and marital turmoil when he meets a group of contemporary alchemists. They take him on an astonishing journey and teach him to transform difficult situations into golden opportunities. Mark learns from wonderfully unlikely characters, from a billionaire to a beautiful topless waitress, and manifests an enormous financial windfall. But can his material success hold his family together? Mark embarks on the ultimate quest to understand how our values influence events. Author William Whitecloud brings a dazzling range of knowledge and experience — from a childhood in Swaziland immersed in supernatural worldviews to hermetic philosophy and esoteric speculation on the financial markets — to bear on this practical and magical look at what we really want, and how to get it.

An illustrated, illuminating insight into the world of illusion from the world’s greatest and most successful magician, capturing its audacious and inventive practitioners, and showcasing the art form’s most famous artifacts housed at David Copperfield’s secret museum. In this personal journey through a unique and remarkable performing art, David Copperfield profiles twenty-eight of the world’s most groundbreaking magicians. From the 16th-century magistrate who wrote the first book on conjuring to the roaring twenties and the man who fooled Houdini, to the woman who levitated, vanished, and caught bullets in her teeth, David Copperfield’s History of Magic takes you on a wild journey through the remarkable feats of the greatest magicians in history. These magicians were all outsiders in their own way, many of them determined to use magic to escape the strictures of class and convention. But they all transformed popular culture, adapted to social change, discovered the inner workings of the human mind, embraced the latest technological and scientific discoveries, and took the art of magic to unprecedented heights. The incredible stories are complimented by over 100 never-before-seen photographs of artifacts from Copperfield’s exclusive Museum of Magic, including a 16th-century manual on sleight of hand, Houdini’s straightjackets, handcuffs, and water torture chamber, Dante’s famous sawing-in-half apparatus, Alexander’s high-tech turban that allowed him to read people’s minds, and even some coins that may have magically passed through the hands of Abraham Lincoln. By the end of the book, you’ll be sure to share Copperfield’s passion for the power of magic.

The Ship of Theseus was one of, if not the, the first thought problem the author was ever taught. As a child he was absolutely infatuated with Greco-Roman mythology and read, without discernment, from D'Aulaire to Hamilton to Bullfinch. He considered the problem to be interesting, but had never connected it to magic in any meaningful way. Segue to late August/mid September of 2014, when the author watched the Doctor Who episode "Deep Breath" and was reminded of his love for the Ship of Theseus. It then occurred to him that the problem might be adaptable into a card routine. This book reveals the history of the plot and several solutions as it pertains to a card routine involving spectators.
