A young magician emailed me a few weeks ago and asked me how he could get a good start in magic. I told him that books are the best way. The following is a list of books that I recommend for anyone starting out in magic. They are all available from Amazon. I sure Easons and O’Mahony’s website would have them too.
Klutz:Book of Magic [Spiral-Bound]
Mark Wilson’s Complete Course in Magic
Self-working Card Tricks: 72 Foolproof Card Miracles for the Amateur Magician
Self-working Table Magic: 97 Foolproof Tricks with Everyday Objects
Modern Coin Magic: 116 Coin Sleights and 236 Coin Tricks
There are only three rules when it comes to performing good magic and they are:
1. Practice
2. Practice
3. Practice
After that get out and enjoy the magic of magic.
