Very Hush-Hush by John Bannon - Book

\n

John Bannon's neues Buch Very Hush-Hush ist wieder druckbar! Dieses Sammelwerk von 40 Kartentricks mit einem "geistigen" Schwerpunkt erfordert wenig oder gar keine Fingerspitzengefühl. In fünf großen Kapiteln erkundet John Bannon unvorstellbare Standorteffekte (auch über Zoom), Vorhersage-Tricks mit und ohne mehrere Reveal-Verfahren, und Performances mit einem Thema der geistigen Magie/Geisteslesung, unter anderem in der Kategorie Wunder. Eine magische Quadrat-Auswahl, die du noch nie gesehen hast, ist das erste Kapitel von Very Hush-Hush, "Teile des Summens", und behandelt Bannons geniale Pappkarten-basierte Ansätze (ja, mehr als einer) an diesem klassischen geistigen Rätsel. Ein Verfahren erlaubt dir, ein magisches Quadrat zu "vorhersagen", während das andere gar keine Zahlen verwendet. Genau so hast du es gelesen.

\n

Entdecke dabei eine Vielzahl hilfreicher Fingerspitzenfeinheiten, einschließlich falscher Schnitte und Schütteln, Wechsel und anderer Bewegungen. Obwohl kein echtes Fingerfliegen erforderlich ist, musst du trotzdem üben.

\n

Alles wird in Bannons vertrauter dritter Person, spöttischer Sprache (Patter und Ein-Liner eingeschlossen) übermittelt, mit einem lockerer Erzählerartigen Ton, der das Lesen des Buches wie eine Unterhaltung erscheinen lässt, anstatt wie ein Lehrbuch. Dieses Buch hat Stil.

\n

Erzähl deinen Freunden, dass es TLDR ist; dann behalte es für dich. Dies ist ein Buch, das du niemandem in die Hände geben möchtest. Ein 260+ Seiten großformatiges, 7" x 10" hochwertiges Hefter, gebunden mit einem Stoffumschlag und einer illustrativen Schutzumschläge. Beiweisen mit schwarz-weißen Fotos.

\n

John Bannon hat sich schon über vierzig Jahre mit Spielkarten beschäftigt. Er ist ein weltweit bestverkaufender Autor von Bücher über nahezu magie, einschließlich Impossibilia, Smoke and Mirrors, Dear Mister Fantasy, High Caliber, Destination Zero und Mentalissimo.

\n

Very Hush-Hush ist ein weiterer Erfolg von John Bannon. Für diejenigen, die nach verwirrenden Routinen suchen, die nicht an den Fingern abzählen, oder für Liebhaber elegant konstruierter Kartenmagie, ist dieses Buch eine Muss-Kaufe. Hoch empfohlen.

Originale englische Beschreibung

Back in print!

John Bannon's is back with this, his latest collection, Very Hush-Hush, forty card tricks with a "mental" slant that require little to no sleight-of-hand.

In five large chapters, John explores impossible location effects (including some that can be performed over Zoom), prediction tricks with and without multiple revelation procedures, and performance pieces with a mental magic/mindreading theme, among other cunning card effects in the miracle class.

And you've never seen a magic square quite like this. The first chapter of Very Hush-Hush "Parts of the Sum," deals directly with Bannon's brilliant pasteboard-driven takes (yes, more than one) on this classic mental mind-bender, and allied effects. One method allows you to "predict" a magic square, while another uses no numbers at all. You read that right.

Along the way, you'll learn a host of helpful sleights and subtleties, including false cuts and shuffles, switches, and other moves. And while there is no real finger-flinging required, yes, you still have to practice.

Everything is conveyed in Bannon's familiar third person tongue-in-cheek tone (patter and one-liners included), with a casual storytelling-like feel that makes reading the book seem more like a conversation than a bout with an instructional textbook.

This book has style.

Tell your friends it's TLDR; then keep it all on the QT. This is one tome you won't want anyone else getting their hands on.

A 260+ page 7" x 10" quality hardcover, bound in cloth with pictorial dust jacket. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs.

John Bannon has been screwing around with playing cards for over forty years. He is a worldwide best-selling author of books on close-up magic, including Impossibilia, Smoke and Mirrors, Dear Mister Fantasy, High Caliber, Destination Zero, and Mentalissimo.

"Very Hush-Hush is another winner from John Bannon. For those of you looking for baffling routines that won't bust your chops, or for lovers of elegantly constructed card magic, this book is a must-buy. Highly recommended."
