As stated earlier, I bought my own kit. Got it last week and have been playing with it each day since then, finally stopped to record my thoughts and first impressions and here they are

I decided to open the one I got for a gift for someone else ( paid with my own money ) and I am unexpectedly surprised at how much material and props you get. You couldn’t pay to review a bad product with a good review. That’s not how it works with me. Believe me, I completely expected this to be the kind of kit Criss Angel released. ( which was trash ) But this is not even close to trash. As many have already stated, the props are more than likely owned by those who perform mentalism. However, what makes this so impressive is that Peter Turner explains things in a way that only he can. And his subtleties are well worth the price of admission for this product. No one I associate with would ever falsely approve of a product just because it came free to them. That means that when people find out that the product no good they’ll have some explaining to do. Just my 2 cents. This is a good buy. |

Took me all of two seconds to see the gaff, and saying that I'm an amateur at mentalism would be unduly complimentary towards me. Which is fine, there's only so many ways to do book tests, it doubtless flies right by the specs (unless they want to look at it), but come on. Also, the USB drive I got doesn't work. In any USB port on any of my computers (2 PCs, 1 Mac). The ports are fine, as other things I plug into them work with no issue. I'm really surprised that there isn't a backup plan for this sort of eventuality, such as a separate download/streaming link. Because I can't imagine I'm the only one who's had this issue. |

On the USB key the gold prongs need to be face up when it slides in ... I'm sure you tried it that way, but just letting EVERYONE Know

I also share how to integrate the book into a group of other books and even go as far as performing this live and sneaking this book into a selection of a restaurant owners other books. I never once had a problem with the book. But just to press/ share something for anyone that is new to mentalism or even intermediate that is often overlooked. The book is a means to arrive at a word randomly. Regardless of how you arrive at a word, a b*llet, a book, flash cards they are only the bridge to getting to the word. Liken it to a lottery drum to arrive at a random number.It should never be the highlight of the routine, the book should be out, used and placed away without drawing much attention to it anyway regardless of whether you are using a real book or a gimmicked one. The process of reading the person or how you present the moment that you're receiving the information from the participant. That is the same as the rest of the props in this kit, use them as a means to getting what you need, but the participants should always believe it is a connection between you and them that is where the information is coming from. A book is also a great way to make a performance seemingly grow, once you move into a b*llet later down the line one method kills the other and also it enables you to expand the size of the performance. Another important factor is that in that particular type of routine the participant who verifies that each page is different and each and every word is different also (the eyes of the group/ the 'trusted' member of the group) is the person whom confirms everything is fair and above board. Therefore it puts the group into a double bind as they have to basically imply that they don't trust their friends judgement to want to question their book. All of these points though don't matter as the book looks great, you can see it in David's review up close on camera - there are no issues, be your own judges. Glad that people are loving the set, I was really confident that any preconceptions might be quashed when people received the sets. Thanks for being cool guys, Pete x |

I wish this release existed 10 years ago :-O - It looks amazing and looks like it contains all the basics. The Dracula book test looks cool though.

Did you turn the USB drive 3 times before it worked? We all know USB drives has 3 sides before it fits

Really great to read all of the positive comments about the props and Peter's teaching. One Café member told me privately he believes Peter is a true genius, and I would agree. If you look at the quality of the material Peter has put out over the past 4 or 5 years, it just keeps getting better and better as his thinking continues to evolve. Peter has become a star in the mentalism community, and a key behind the scenes consultant to some of the best known performers in the field. Should he choose to take his career in this direction, I believe one day Peter will become a world famous entertainer, known to millions across the globe.

I ‘m interested in unlocking the cellphone. Not looking for the method just wanted to know if this is a good clean effect? I think that it would be very impressive and get great reactions if not to many steps to make it happen.

There are a few methods taught, actually. Some require more 'work' than others, but they're all practical.

I plugged in other devices to confirm that the ports were functional, which they were. I think what really changed it is that I wrote to Ellusionist support, and as soon as I sent that email, I tried again and lo and behold, it worked. And they say there's no such thing as real magic... |

In the IT world we used to call it "Tech hands". The problem persists until the technician touched the computer, then it'd be impossible to recreate.
