This is a great book and it is the perfect spring board into this style of performance. Paul's real life fun and friendly style transfers wonderfully into the written word, where his style encourages you to put into action the wonderful techniques that he teaches.

Contained in the pages you will find information that, if you study and work at, will pay you dividends. Imagine having the ability to walk out in front of an audience completely propless and be able to do an hour show. Just imagine that for a moment, how amazing that ability would be!

It is yours for the taking and with practice it will be possible to provide high hit rates and astound people.

Promise me though, if you buy this book that you will at least give the one-to-one palm reading a go. I have written about it before in one of my books (I'm not sure which one, so buy them all to make sure you get the full anecdote) but I once watched a group of people be amazed for over an hour by a guy who walked into a bar and started giving free palm readings.

Real knowledge from a man who does this for his day job, what more could you want?

Cheers,

-Paul

i was quite pleased to read that ive been reading palms in this way.
Indeed, as i may of mentioned before, i only tend to do it, if ive a few other things in my favour.
Ill only do it if ive been able to hot, or cold read the sitter before hand.
On spectacular sucess i had a couple of years ago, was on this woman, whom, my mate knew.
she was erm, loose.
She had sat there after a few glasses of plonk, and , as women often do when tipsy, she got louder, and louder.

I was showing my mate a card trick, ... she spots me, and comes over saying " you dont read palms do you?"

so armed with all the info about her, and the fact that shed just had a go at her son on her mobile, for going out on his bike without saying where he was going, i gave her the reading of her life.

and, the best thing is, i just pointed vaugly at her palm, and mentioned life lines, and money, and heart, and children. I didnt point at one single line correctly, and i know that as fact.


I got away with it, because i also knew that SHE had no idea what lines were which.
It was a right hoot.

you're like Yoda.you dont say much, but what you do say is worth listening to....

Just a quick heads up - Reader of Minds as a hard copy will stop being available after this coming weekend (5th December-ish). The book itself will still be available from Lebanon Circle as a pdf download (www.lebanoncircle.co.uk), but the website I used to sell the hard copies will soon be needed for other new exciting projects!

So if you want a lovely signed copy of the book, please hurry up and order! You have but mere days left! :D

Damn you and your sophisticated sales techniques! I've been ummimg and erring over this for a while but seeing as the hard copy is going to cease to exist, I've submitted to CUPS. You should be seeing my money entering your PayPal account any minute now. :D

Many thanks sir!

The reason I'm stopping using the website to sell hard copies is that i have an amazing new project starting in January, and as I have 3 websites on the go at the moment I didn't want to have to start looking after another one as well. Sales of the hard copy have slowed right down now, and the book will still be available on Lebanon Circle and Lybrary.

Since buying this excellent work I've started to do some palm reading amongst the magic and hypno - people (women mainly) genuinely go mad for it. It's what the PUA community call "chick crack". Top stuff, especially for those who aren't interested in seeing "another card trick" or whatever. A highly recommended purchase!

BTW - I was slightly thrown by one lady who had two parallel life lines. Not something I've seen before, so I waffled and blagged my way through it but was wondering if there is a "generally accepted" interpretation for this?

There are a couple of possible interpretations - this person could have been a twin, they may have been very ill or been in an accident in the past (had two lives kind of thing), or they may feel like they have had a second chance at life after a big drama. The more spiritual minded may also interpret the second line as been indicative of someone with a guardian spirit watching over them.

Excellent! This is such a good book. Worth it for the advice on tarot and palm reading alone.
