The Devil's Staircase--Important New Card Magic Book

Postby Jack Shalom » November 29th, 2014, 10:16 am

Hi, I recently had the pleasure of reading Greg Chapman's new book The Devil's Staircase.
I began as a proofreader, but I became a real fan while doing my job!

This is Darwin Ortiz and Andrew Wimhurst territory. Intermediate to advanced gambling-themed magic and memdeck work. Greg is a very clever man and a very good writer. Even if you don't do gambling material there's lots on offer here. The book has been getting raves from the likes of Michael Vincent. It's got an Introduction by Sal Piacente.

You can read my full review on my daily blog at http://jackshalom.net/2014/11/28/the-de ... agic-book/

If you browse through the blog you'll find other posts on Magic, Theater, Performance, and Writing that you may enjoy.

Happy reading!
