I've been doing card magic for 3 years now learning from Royal Road and Expert Card Technique. I stumbled across this site recently and noticed a few people recommended Giobbi's Card College. I wasn't sure but now I have it. I have to tell anyone else who is not sure how good this book is!!! Even after 3 years, volume 1 taught me so much, and those illustrations are genius.

I did the same thing. For some reason I kept putting off purchasing the books since I thought that Expert Card Technique and Royal Road had everything that you need. I bought them about a month ago and just like you love them to death. If you are into cards, these are a must.

If Card College is worth the time of a card genius like Juan Tamariz and many many other well known cardicians, it should be good enough for all of us, regardless of how many books we have read already or how long we are in magic.

All the praise for Card College is absolutly justified. No matter how good you are with cards or how long you have been involved in magic, after going through Card College I-IV seriously you don't need any other book on card magic for quite some time.

Very true! I can't wait until Volume V comes out, do we know what will be in the book, I think that I heard there will be more effects?

They are great books, an infinite resource for the card worker. It's got everything in there. I cannot wait for Volume 5.

Card College is great. My nails are a little on the long side for card magic but it has been an invaluable resource when I have had to learn how to do something in particular. Clear instructions that even I can understand. You cannot get much more a glowing review than that from me!

Perhaps the best place to start with cards. Period.
