• Chris Wardle ma rzadką umiejętność tworzenia bardzo dobrych sztuczek. Tworzenia jego są zawsze praktyczne, ingenuistycznie inteligentne i tajemniczo fałszywe. Tworzenia Chrisa opierają się na ciekawym zmuszaniu lub nowej interpretacji znanej techniki zmuszania.
\n
• W tej super nowej książce Chris przedstawia swoją ulubioną serię zmuszeń i pokazuje, jak je używać do tworzenia interesujących efektów, które są tak zagadkowe jak zabawne do obserwacji. Ian Rowland.
\n

\n

„QUIRKY FORCES” zawiera PIĘĆDZIESIETKI tajne i złośliwe metody w osiem rozdziałach, obejmujących zmuszenia słów, obrazów, kart, liczb, kwadratów magicznych i siatek, prostych gimmicków zmuszania, testów książek i kolorów, razem z kompleksowymi rutynami dla magików pracujących.

\n

W 1932 roku Theo Annemann opublikował zbiorę 101 metod zmuszania, które sam zebrał w ciągu lat. Inne 101 metody zmuszania zostały skompilowane i opublikowane prawie dwa lata później. W 1937 roku Max Holden połączył te dwie Annemannowe broszury w to, co dzisiaj znane jest jako klasyczna 202 Metody Zmuszania. Książka ta jest kluczowa, pokrywająca niektóre great (i niektóre niepraktyczne) pomysły na zmuszanie.

\n

W kolejnym dekadzie Annemannowe książka będzie stała się wiekowa. Czy te metody nadal są aktualne dzisiaj? Zaskakująco tak. Nadal, muszą istnieć coś nowego.

\n

Lewis Jones opublikował swoje Encyklopedię Impromptu Karty Zmuszania w 1994 roku i Big Blind Media wydała fantastyczną filmową projekt zatytułowaną Projekt Zmuszania około 2012 roku. Oba dotyczyły, oczywiście, zmuszeń kart, choć sprytni magicy mogliby łatwo przekształcić te pomysły na zmuszenia poza karty.

\n

Even with all these, there has been a need for a collection of clever and unusual forces (cards or not) that can propel intriguing magic or mentalism effects. Enter Chris Wardle. Magician, educator, writer and need-fulfiller!

\n

\n
• Chris zebrał w swojej książce Quirky Forces fantastyczną kolekcję unikalnych i niezwykłych metod zmuszania. I nie jak powyżej wymienione cytaty (i wiele innych), po wyjaśnieniu metod, Chris pokazuje, jak najlepiej je wykorzystać w efekcie (lub dwóch). Nie można zaprzeczyć znaczenia tego. To daje żywo życie opisanym metodom i (pardon za żart) zmusza czytelnika do myślenia o własnym zastosowaniu metody i techniki. To samodzielnie podnosi tekst Chrisa od zwyczajnego do wyjątkowego.
\n

\n

To książka, która jest obowiązkowa do przeczytania dla twórczych magików i mentalistów.

\n

Dla wszystkich tych powodów Quirky Forces jest WYSYŁANY Z WIELKĄ RZECZYWISTością.

• Michael Breggar, twórca mágicznego i regularny kolumnista w „The Linking Ring”.
\n
• Chris to skarb z oryginalnych, komercyjnych pomysłów, a ta książka jest niezwykle podobna. Zawsze mogę ocenić dobry magiczny tom po liczbie przekładów krawędzi stron, i mogę serdecznie powiedzieć, że zmieniłem więcej krawędzi stron Quirky Forces niż jakikolwiek inny tom.

„Quirky Forces: Ta przydatna książka odbija cechy ciągłego twórczego wyjścia Chrisa Wardle'a; jego podtytuł ustanawia cele: Pięćdziesiąt tajnych i ingenuistycznych metod zmuszania... Jest tu bogata materiał, pomysły, zasady i kompleksowe rutyny, do których możesz się odnieść.”

\n

„Chris Wardle zrobił fantastyczną pracę organizując informacje. Metody są kategorizowane w sekcjach, a każda indywidualna metoda (która jest nauczana w kontekście rutyny) zaczyna się od krótkiej, kursywej opisem. To nie jest, należy to zauważyć, zbiorcza kolekcja innych ludziowych pomysłów. Każda z tych części ma znaczący wkład Wardle'a, od całkowicie oryginalnego do istotnych modyfikacji, które wymagają publikacji. I to są brilijne i praktyczne pomysły o ogromnej elastyczności... To niezwykle zaszczytna zasoby, która powinna znaleźć miejsce w Twojej bibliotece obok Annemanna klasycznego.”\n\n

Oryginalny opis angielski

QUIRKY FORCES - A NEW HARDBACK MAGIC BOOK!

• FIFTY sneaky, ingenious, offbeat forcing methods from award-winning originator Chris Wardle
• Over 200 pages, with over 40 graphics (photographs/images/tables)
• With a foreword by Ian Rowland

Chris Wardle has the rare knack of devising very good tricks indeed. His magical inventions are always practical, satisfyingly ingenious and slyly deceptive. Chris's creations rely on a clever force or a way to apply a familiar forcing principle in a new way. In this superb new book, Chris presents a range of his favorite forces and shows how to use them to create intriguing effects that are as baffling as they are fun to watch' Ian Rowland

"QUIRKY FORCES" contains FIFTY sneaky and devious forces over eight chapters, covering forces with words, images, cards, numbers, magic squares and grids, simple forcing gimmicks, book tests and colors, together with complete routines for the working magician.

In 1932 Theo Annemann published a collection of 101 forces that he had personally compiled over the years. Another 101 forces were collated and published just shy of two years later. In 1937 Max Holden combined these two Annemann booklets into what we know today as the classic 202 Methods of Forcing. The book is seminal, covering some great (and some not-too-practical) forcing ideas. In the next decade, Annemann's book will be a century old. Do these forces still hold up today? Remarkably so. Still, there MUST be something new.

Lewis Jones published his Encyclopedia of Impromptu Card Forces in 1994 and Big Blind Media produced a fabulous video called The Forces Project around 2012. Both dealt with, obviously, card forces, though nimble-minded magicians could easily rework these ideas to force things beyond cards.

Even with all these, there has been a need for a collection of clever and unusual forces (cards or not) that can propel intriguing magic or mentalism effects. Enter Chris Wardle. Magician, educator, writer and need-fulfiller!

Chris has compiled a terrific collection of unique and unusual forces in his book Quirky Forces. And unlike the citations I mention above (and many others), after Chris explains the forces, he then demonstrates how the forces are best used in an effect (or two). One cannot underestimate the importance of this. It breathes vivid life into the forces described and (pardon the pun) forces the reader into thinking of their own application of force and method. This alone elevates Chris' text from the ordinary to the exceptional. It becomes something you read slowly to appreciate the ideas and think about their application simultaneously.

This is a book that is a must-read for creative magicians and mentalists.

For all these reasons, Quirky Forces is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Michael Breggar, magical creator and regular columnist in 'The Linking Ring'.

"Chris is a treasure trove of inventive, commercial ideas, and this book is no different. I can always tell a good magic book by the amount of page corners I have folded down, and I can hand on heart say I turned more corners of Quirky Forces down than any other book."
- Preston 'Spooky' Nyman, editor Mazel Magazine.

"Quirky Forces: This useful book resonates with the characteristics of Chris Wardle's ongoing creative output; his subtitle lays down his intentions: Fifty sneaky, ingenious forcing methods...There is a wealth of material here, concepts, principles and complete routines, for you to draw upon.'"
- Bob Gill, 'The Magic Circular', February 2023.

"...Chris Wardle has done a fantastic job organizing the information. The forces are categorized into sections, and each individual force (which is taught in the context of a routine) begins with a short, italicized description. This is not, it should be noted, a collection of other people's ideas. Every one of these pieces has significant work from Wardle, ranging from entirely original to substantial variations that merit publication. And these are brilliant and practical ideas with tremendous versatility... This is an impressive resource that deserves a spot in your library next to the Annemann classic."
