So I checked the two Waterstones stores in Birmingham - all magic books are under ‘Indoor Games’ (yukkk!) one store had Confessions of a Conjurer and nothing else. The other had Mark Wilson and that was it. Usually there are three books on magic, Teach Yourself being a popular one. Based on the current poor selection offered for sale, the libraries score far more Brownie points!

So, what’s in your Waterstones?

When I looked in Kingston's recently they had Royal Road and Derren Brown's last two.

The works is usually worth a look, They had a Derrens book and a few other magic related items. Great for cheap probs and tarot cards sometimes too

The Works often have the odd magic book crop up now and again so are worth keeping an eye on.
