Description
“If Corinda is the Bible of Mentalism, T.A. Waters is the New Testament.” – Gaetan Bloom
Have you ever dreamed you could walk out on stage, ask the spectators to call out at random a multi-digit number, then turn to reveal a card pinned to your back in a position where you obviously can’t reach it – a card that states the precise number just stipulated?
Have you ever wished you could record for later verification – hours or days before the fact – the appearance of a perfect stranger who will sit in a specific seat in your audience?
Have you ever wanted to conjure up a live, sixteen-inch-tall demon in a candle-lit séance room, or divine a mentally chosen name with the aid of a mysteriously animated talisman that floats in a bottle of Atlantean seawater?
Have you ever desired to answer an audiences innermost concerns and questions without a whisper of chicanery – to tell people things about them that you couldn’t possibly know, just by touching some possession of theirs – to divine the astrological signs of total strangers without having the slightest knowledge of their birthdates?
These are but a few of the things that T.A. Waters has dreamed, then taken as challenges, and to which he has devised ingenious and practical solutions.
Mind, Myth & Magick is packed with exciting ideas and keen insights on mentalism, thoughtfully and thoroughly explained in this remarkable book by one of the field’s finest thinkers and most inspired innovators – T.A. Waters!
