One of the latest greatest card magic thinkers has passed away.
His originality about mathematical card magic presentation made his books "Thinking the Impossible" and "Second Thoughts" a "must-have" for any card magic lover not very interedted in sleight of hand.
One of his best (mem-deck) masterpieces, "Control in Chaos," was published also in Tamariz's book "Mnemonica," as Tamariz considered it so special.
When I think about card magic, his name is one of the names that will always appear in my mind.
God bless you, Ramón, Rest in Peace, and thanks for sharing your great ideas.

Very sorry to hear that, Paco!
I remember that I enjoyed Mr. Rioboo's book "Thinking the Impossible" a lot some years ago.
May he rest in peace and play his clever tricks in the greatest magicall Wonderland!

Thank you, Paco.
I am a big fan of Ramon - I constantly reread his books.
He wrote with such clarity of effect, psychology, and construction.
RIP, and "Show them a trick, Ramon!".

So sorry to hear this. I hope he is able to continue to enjoy his passion for card magic in that big magic castle in the sky.
BTW, Paco, speaking of must reading, I would recommend your book as being high on the top of that list. It's amazing that you have offered to share it at no charge. Your generosity is rare, as is your creativity as a card magician.

Re: R.I.P. Ramon Rioboo
Thank you very much, Alfred!
There's something much more valuable than writting a book... making it helpful for the one that read it
I would like to remind that the cover was designed by Jan Isenbart, AKA our beloved fellow Zig Zagger!

Thank you very kindly, Paco! But my little contribution was just a tiny dash of color on top of your sparkling tome...
