Hi All,
Last Monday I launched my new book Hellis in Wonderland at my Magic Circle lecture... following the launch I have updated my website to give more information on the book and allow you to order your copy at
http://www.willhoustoun.co.uk/HellisAbout.html
If you have any interest in Magic History or are looking for plots and effects that have been forgotten by most modern day magicians then this is the book for you. It is a nicely produced hard back book with a dust jacket that is published in a limited edition of 500 signed and numbered copies.
If you have any questions I will do my best to answer them.
Best wishes,
Will

Does Ian know the TalkMagic tradition of buying Mods and Admin a Will Houston book when it's your birthday? I'd hate to have to ban him...

I gave up waiting for this long established tradition to actually start so I've ordered my own copy. And nobody will get an invite to my Birthday Party or play with my prezzies - so there....
I will carefully gift wrap the book then use R.I.P to hypnotise myself to forget I bought it and thus get a wonderful suprise....

I've got a hectic day today but if nobody else responds, I'll try and list the contents asap so you can see what's included. Basically you have a copy of the original handwritten notes on one page and Will's printed version on the other. Will deserves a medal for deciphering the handwriting and the additional facts and data he includes really expand the original tricks into something we can all appreciate.
