This book contains five approaches to the classic sandwich plot. Kyle has approached this plot with a lot of enthusiasm which shines throughout the whole book.
He has given the plot a built in presentation(s) (which is not often seen in this effect) but left enough leeway for the performer to add in their own personality which (imho) is how it should be. The five handlings require only standard sleights and / or moves, so are well within the reach of most cardmen. Saying that don't be fooled into thinking that this is just someones take on sandwiches, Kyle has gone to a lot of effort to make each handling a mini drama in itself with a lot of visual magic taking place. The overall appearence of the book is good, with clear text and instructions, some good pic's as required and a list of references that have inspired Kyle's thoughts on this classic plot. Highly recommended. David.

Today, I managed to go through Kyle MacNeill's stuffs in his new e-book. I find that the front cover of the e-book is interesting and it is no surprise that the entire e-book talks about card sandwich tricks. It contains 5 sandwich effects.
The author starts off by explaining about his interest in card magic and the card sandwich history at the introduction section. At the table of contents, I find them very useful as upon clicking the links, this will bring you to the particular page and I also like the simplicity of the layout in the entire e-book. So, what about the quality of the materials? I should say the materials are quite decent and if you expect high quality card sandwich effects, perhaps this is not a preferred e-book. But, one thing I should say or impress about this chap is; Kyle is just 13 years old and I can see his enthusiasm shines through the entire e-book. I think Kyle has the potential of coming up good quality card magic in the future. However, there is one interesting idea which I found in this book; that is BLT - Borrowing Looting Stealing. I find that there are too many handlings to tackle this plot and it would be better to streamline the handling. I can see the author is trying to be creative in terms of giving the spectator a big surprise for the end climax which I like the idea. At the end, all the four Aces magically change to four Kings. Even though Kyle offers this e-book for $4 at http://www.lybrary.com, I think it's worth checking out at least sometimes, when you read someone's materials, you may challenge yourself and perhaps even think out a better solution to tackle a particular plot.
