I agree. 21st Century Coin Mechanics taught me several gorgeous retention vanishes. That alone was worth the price of the book.
I am constantly performing the 15 Card Poker Deal, The 39th card, and Underhanded Deception. Wonderful magic in Counting on Deception. I hope there is more material to come from the good doctor. David |

Thanks for those comments guys.
I am about half done with writing my fifth book. No title yet. More unique mathematical effects plus a variety of other magic with cards, coins etc. I may offer it in comb or spiral bound rather than hard cover case bound as in my other books. This way I can sell it at a much lower price. Larry |

Larry,
I love that I own all of your books in hard cover. It's the quality of the content that I love the most so I would definitely still put your spiral bound next to the others on my shelf ... but I love those quality hard covers! Frank |

I personally love the hard covers but I also think if this is offered in a less expensive format, people will begin to realize what they have been missing with Larry's other books.
Kingdom of the Red and The Book of Destiny flew under my radar for a long time but I became interested and ordered both a few weeks ago. The moment I received these books and opened them I asked myself why I waited so long to buy these! Larry sent these books out right away (I had them in two days) and was a pleasure to work with. I was so impressed that I pm'd this to Larry yesterday... "Hi, Larry. I received Kingdom of the Red and The Book of Destiny last week and I just wanted to let you know these are among the most treasured books in my collection! They are beautifully produced. The quality of the books and the magic contained therein is second to none. I am working through Kingdom of the Red right now. I haven't had time to get into The Book of Destiny yet other than to peruse the contents and some clips from the dvd, briefly. What great work. I think your books are the best kept secret in magic. Thanks again for great service and the fantastic books. I will probably be ordering Counting on Deception at some point in the future. Not sure about 21st Century Coin Mechanics yet because I'm not much of a coin magician and tend to just use the basics... classic palm, finger palm, basic vanishes, click pass, etc. Then again, the other books flew under my radar for a long time so maybe that one is too, right now. Thanks again, Larry." For anyone who is even remotely interested in ordering these books from Larry, let me tell you that these books really are among some of my favorites and it is such a pleasure working through them. I have sold many of my books here on the Café because I just don't, or won't, read or use anything in them, but these books by Mr. Barnowsky aren't going anywhere. They are right there alongside my copies of Salon de Magie, Greater Magic, Modern Magic, The Magic Book, Scarne on Card Tricks, Apocalypse, Hugard's Magic Monthly, The Amateur Magician's Handbook, and the third edition of Expert Card Technique, among others. |

Thanks so much for all those comments about my books.
My fifth book will be entitled Magica Analytica. Much of the magic will be self-working using some mathematical principles never used before in magic. I have drawn from the fields of topology, number theory, group theory, and algebra. Most of the effects can be done with an ordinary deck of cards. For variety, I've included a few non-math effects including a new favorite coin routine. This will be a smaller book than my prior four with a little over 100 pages. The book will be illustrated with color photographs and diagrams. I plan on having it comb or spiral bound. Price should be under $30. At this point, all writing is done and all photos have been taken and inserted into the manuscript. I am proof reading the manuscript right now. I expect the book to be available to ship by early Fall or possibly sooner. All four of my other books are still in stock. Larry |

I placed my order for "The Book of Destiny". I was surprised when I checked my books that I didn't have this. Thankfully I've corrected my error.
