The foreword of the book states that the Hardback version is limited to 1500 copies. However…. If anyone really wants a copy ….. it might be worth checking eBay.

It has been confirmed by the developer that this ‘Reborn’ version is NOT compatible with the larger screen size of the iPhone 12 or 13 Pro Max. I have just reque...

Mental Killer Reborn

Just wondered if anyone has purchased the new ‘Reborn’ version of the brilliant Max Krause app Mental Killer ?

Asi Wind in the U.K.

Just had a wonderful evening watching the incredible Asi Wind here in the U.K. with his new show Do You Want to Change Your Mind. A really small, intimate venue and mind blowing magic. Well done Asi - some of the finest magic seen in the U.K. for many years. Absolutely LOVED IT.

Re: Jamie Raven comes 2nd on Britain's Got Talent

Less than an hour to go before Darcy Oake performs in the final of Britain's Got Talent. To get to final is amazing enough, but the real possibility of winning would be incredible. Good luck to Darcy and his team, including UK illusionist Russ Stevens.
