Per Eugene's wishes, Larry has held onto this goldmine and it is now ready to be shared with the world. Full of Eugene's unpublished material with over 15 parlor, stage and spirit theater routines. Included is his Spirit Slates and the first-ever revelation of his Gypsy Thread. Not only can this be held in your hands, it includes access to 13 video and 2 audio performances. Rarely seen photos, essays, interviews and more too! This 240 page work is perfect for the professional and of course the collector.

This is kind of crazy - crazy in that we get to hear from the mage after his death, and crazy in that he prepared all of this to happen.
It makes me wonder - what was his motivation? And who is benefiting from the proceeds? One feels a bit sad, thinking that Eugene could have enjoyed the feedback from sharing these works, and benefited financially from their sale. |

I just got mine, and at first look, it is as good as anything EB has done. Larry Hass did an excellent job of editing and writing. Having arranged all this years before his demise was his great Final Trick.

Can we get a table of contents from those that have purchased the book? I truly have enjoyed reading and reflecting on all of the published works by Eugene Burger and my curiosity is piqued with this, his latest tome, I’m.certain it will be an important addition to the magical canon.

For all others interested, you may now find the list of effects from the new Burger book on Vanishing Inc’s website. |

The one guy I know that's read it so far loved it. It's on my "To Read" pile, though, so no idea when I'll get to it

I went to check out the performance videos online and was asked for a random word on a random page from the book.
So... I thumbed the book open... and... I'M NOT JOKING... it fell open to precisely the page required!! No Kidding Mr Burger! |

My copy of Burger’s new book is exceptional in every way! Really enjoying the read.
The other night, I set out to rehearse Eugene’s handling of Gypsy Thread from the book...and every time I went to unspool my yellow cotton thread, the candle which my wife bought for me from IKEA spontaneously lit on it’s own! I’M NOT JOKING! No kidding Mr. Burger! (Actually, my wife switched in a SPARK candle for the duplicate candle from IKEA [she bought both, not telling me, just for the prank] and went about lighting the candle flame remotely). Good one, huh! But things were absolutely breathtaking for the short while that I thought Burger was influencing things...FROM BEYOND! |

That is hilarious.
So I guess that's a pretty decent review for Spark as well, eh?
