I tend to buy Magic magazine but it's very americanised.

The best UK magic reading in my opinion is Magic Week and it's FREE.

http://www.magicseen.co.uk/ - printed version sent by snailmail or available as a download - best of both worlds and well worth reading :wink:

I agree with Mandrake Magicseen i suscribe to it and its very good lots of different magic a good selection. You have mentalism,close-up,cabaret and even how to make baloon models for kids its got everything you want out of a magic magazine.
