Extreme Cuts with KeoneI have a confession to make. Though I love Bicycle Card Magic, I am not much into XCM (extreme card magic). However, I know many of you are, and this classic DVD has all the card flourishes you could want, and is currently HALF PRICE at only £11.49.

Bicycle Rainbow Deck and DVD
This factory produced Rainbow Deck in Bicycle cards comes with some special gaff cards and an instructional DVD for £21.99

In my continuing quest (crusade sounds too grand) to encourage people to read good magic books, I want to mention this gem by one of our home grown talents, Guy Hollingworth. This is a beautiful book in every way – well-written, well-illustrated, and with some amazing card magic within its pages. I’ve had the privilege of seeing Guy perform some of this stuff and it really is brilliant. £26.99

He recently did an interesting piece on the BBC about copyright in magic and the article includes two nice videos of him performing, including the infamous ‘Reparation’ – check it out at http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/7722521.stm.
