This is my first review, so please bear with me

Fight Dirty Lecture Notes By Andy Nyman
Available From Alakazam
Price £12.00

Difficult: 1 to 4
(1=easy to do, 2=No sleights, but not so easy, 3=Some sleights used,
4=Advanced sleights used, 5=Suitable for experienced magicians only)

Effects

Dead zone. A bold and amazing stage routine. a spectator hides 3 weapons in his pocket. you predict exactly where the spectator will hide them. ( Not Dead Zone Pro, Sadly)

Kick in the head. from a face up deck the spectator names any card. it is removed and is the only red backed card in a blue backed deck.

Chair swindle. The spectator chooses one of two chairs to sit in, you influence him sit in the one you predicted. works every time.

The Danny Rose Cigar Trick. A new twist on the classic bank night plot. In this routine everyone wins.

The Hidden. You will love performing this/ Its a card routine like no other. A doodle to perform.

The Wet Headline Scenario. An Essay

Personally I loved this, but some people have been irritated by one thing, the fact that the whole book is in capital letters.
Other then that the book is full of useful and interesting things, such as informative essays and very useful tricks.

What I love about this is that the spectator will be absolutely amazed by all the effects.
I know that because I use them regulary in my performances. It always leaves the audience speechless.

Anyway, back to the book. As some of you may have noticed a lot of this material is in Get Nyman And Bulletproof
There is not much to say about the book for two reason A) There is only 5 routines B) They are hard to explain without going into exposure.

Sorry if my review was bad. I tried to cover everything.

Thanks for this, written stuff isn't easy to review but you've covered enough to inform us and potential purchases now know a lot more which help them decide if they want to buy or not.

Thanks for review. Andy Nyman is amazing. And if you think about the fact that mentalism is not even his profession, it's really impressive. I'll definitely try to buy these notes at some point. Thanks for review!
