That's a wee bit vague you know! I'm not sure about stage, but for closeup sleight of hand with cards Royal Road to Card magic, and with coins Bobo's Modern Coin Magic are the ones you are most likely to be pointed towards since from your post you sound like a beginner.

The Card Magic of Le Paul has some quality sleights and some excellent tricks....

I've not read Mark Wilsolns book but the Paul Harris Art of Astonishment trilogy has been very highly praised in all quarters..
