My 3 favourite books:

1. Classic Magic of Larry Jennings
2. Duffie's Card Compulsions
3. Cardzones

Andrew ^_^

1) magic for dummies
2) magic and showmanship
3) modern coin magic/encyclopedia of card tricks

chernacious,

Wow, good collections you have there dude. I tried to get the magic and showmanship, but it's OOP. <_<

Andrew

1) Magic and Showmanship A Handbook for Conjurers
2) The New Master Course In Hypnotism
3) Card College (This isn't a book, these are a series of books)

If you want to be a good performer especially on stage then go and get the 1st one. If you want to have a good foundation on card sleights then go and get the 3rd one.

There are other books that I like as well like Tony Daniels', Dariel Fitzkee's and so on.

Think i saw a copy at Kinokuniya a few months back. Dunno if they still have it.

Yeah, thanks Rainking for the helpful info. Think don't have enough time to go Kinokuniya to search for books.

Maybe will go to Scotland next month to shop there as well as meeting some friends. ;)

Cheers,
Andrew

You can purchase the book online through Kinokuniya.

Thanks Monte for the great help. I will try to suft the online store.

Well, it's a big investment for me now, I used to have lots of classic magic books which I am regret that my action last few years, I sold them all. Now I am reallt regret. :(

Will try to get the classic books again this week, maybe other books have to keep aside first.

Oh yes folks, one question pops up in my mind, what you guys views on Classic Magic book and Contemporary magic books??

Which ones are more important for us to dwelve into the magic??? Whether on classic or contemporary???

I would love to hear you guys views on this, thanks! ^_^
