196 Ways To Force A Card

The Effect
196 Ways To Force A Card - e Book

Cost
99p from e bay. Don't know where this is being sold elsewhere. Recieved it via e mail within 12 hrs.

Difficulty
(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)
Depends on force used.

Review
I found this on ebay for 99p & what a bargain. I don't know who put this selection together as there is no author credits so I do hope it hasn't been illegally sold.

I'm only up to force 53 at the mo but with 196 of the buggers there's gotta be something for everyone, so far there's forces involving words, maths, sleight of hand, hats, numbers, short cards & more.

There's no pictures or diagrams unfortunatly so some of the forces involvng sleights can be a bit confusing to follow.

Already I've found a couple of forces that work into lovely little tricks using any deck unprepared.

Overall
I would have been prepared to pay upto £15.00 for this if it was in book form so am very happy with it.

For 99p you can't go wrong. Recommended.

10/10 :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Theodore Anneman wrote a book, 202 ways of forcing. I am not entirely sure where your book has come from though....

In Anneman`s book, there are also no pictures and also deals with words,numbers,math etc. I wonder whether your book is maybe not a copy?

Anyway, enjoy! It really is wothwhile to have as I have found countless items of value in Anneman`s book 8)

If it is anything like Anneman's book, then I'm afraid, Johnny, that you've been ripped off (I say ripped off, but it is only for 99p!)

Anneman's '202 methods of forcing' is available, for free, at the Learned Pig Project. PM me if you need more details, Johnny.
