View Prole I agree with many of the above posts. Let's stop talking about this book. It's too good.

View Prole Im sorry but I didn't nd that it was that good. How to construct a show was very useful but it was just a small part of the book.

I didn't nd that it had much new in it. I didn't like the scripting either or the effects.
He breaks down the act--the very act that he uses and shows you what you need to do.
Granted, the effects are not the important thing here--so if you're looking at it for that--I would pass. But if you'd like a good solid
examination of how to put together an act--and understand the philosphies behind it...the book is worth it's weight in gold.

View Prole Richard, I always agree with that statement. Too many items are way underpriced.

I point this out as I believe Mr Hickok's business-like and customer-focused approach adds a sharpness and real-world dimension
to the material that is clearly based on his considerable personal experience.
The author lays out his act in a very structured way and adds many unique insights into performance and entertainment issues that
are extremely valuable.
I am delighted he chose to release this material and as for the price, this has to be one of the best bargains around and worth its
weight in gold for those who are prepared to apply such a strategy to their own work.

View Prole 1908 - don't buy it for the routines - they're good, but fairly standard. Buy it for the extras - the thinking, routining, psychology, etc.
Regular user That's what I really learnt from (although as we can read above, Shrink didn't - but I think he's rather more experienced than me and

may know this stuff already)
Having said that, the routines include a Magic Square, a demonstration of influence, a psychometry effect with drawings, a multi-
ook test routine and a prediction effect. There are also a few other bonus effects.
Chuck Hickok's website is http://www.chuckhickok.com/ and you can buy the book on http://www.chuckhickok.com/book.html

For those of you reading my post above and wondering what the fantastic "multi-ook test" is, please send a cheque for $50 to me
and I will reveal all in my manuscript "how to spell 'book'"

You should also be able to get it from your local dealer. It's been on Hank Lee's website for a while now. Smile

View Prole I agree with Ian: the effects are just icing on the cake in this book. I had my money's worth before I even reached the description of
