John Carney – Carneycopia

PDF

Rarely do we see so much great magic in one book. Carneycopia represents the early half of John Carney’s life in magic and contains a wealth of amazing material.

Carney adopts a rather classical approach to magic. He cares about construction and economy of handling. He understands what makes a good trick and how to make an audience tick. This book is full of real-world magic. I can imagine every single one of them being performed in restaurants， bars and close-up theaters around the world.

Stephen Minch is perhaps the only author in magic who could successfully capture Carney’s ideas and he did it beautifully.
