It's magic--close-up, in-your-face magic, taught by Britain's leading comedy conjurer. Paul Zenon presents his great tricks and illusions in an accessible format that's well illustrated with easy-to-follow diagrams. He start with the simplest tricks, so beginners can focus on entertainment rather than sleight-of-hand. As skills grow, novices can progress to card counting, predictions, graphology, and a heart-stopping routine where the dead seem to appear.
