Hi guys, there's been quite a few reviews on the IAOCPAC deck but sadly I haven't found any on the materials inside the book itself. If anyone that has actually bought the book can shed some light on whether this book and the thing it teaches is worth $64.95 that would be wonderful.

Cheers

I have the book.

Personally, the book is rather a collection than a learning media for me.
Palming material in the book in medium-advance version. And there is no basic about palming at all.
And I think it's rather difficult.

The book contain 18 chapters (If I recalled correctly)
You will learn about 18 palming technics, no trick, no other things.

However, the look of the book and the deck are really cute.
I don't regret buying it.

I guess I remember it wrong.
I have the book, but it's in my other home.
And I read it just once.

Alex, so to get the Brick of cards in your youtube video you had to also get a brick of books O.o
Mystery is the basic appeal of magic. Once the secrets are known, the magician becomes a mere manipulator, an actor in a suspense drama which has little impact because the audience knows the ending in advance.
