I recommend Fast Company which I've reviewed somewhere

I highly recommend Jerry Mentzer's Counts Cuts Moves and Subtlety - a fantastic (and ridiculously underpriced) book. I always find myself going back to it for a refresher!

I don't know of a UK shop that has it, but $8.50 is like what... 20 cents for you, now?

Seeing as this threads being added to I might as well chime in :)
    I said it on the other thread but i'll repeat it here - I recommend Expert Card Technique, around a tenner from most magic shops/sites.

Ha! We wish.

That book is available from Cards 4 Magic, Magic Books by Post and World of Magic (and quite possibly many more places too). Seems to go for about £7.
