"I’m thrilled that T.A. Waters’ Mind, Myth & Magick has been reprinted. Spanning over 800 pages, this book is a treasure trove of routines and ideas. It covers nearly every aspect of mentalism, offering page after page of practical, mind-blowing material for both professionals and amateurs alike. The effects are clearly written, powerful, and easy to follow. Learn from T.A. Waters—one of the greatest mentalists of our time. This book should be required reading for anyone serious about the art!" - Bill Malone
"If Corinda is the Bible of Mentalism, T.A. Waters is the New Testament." - Gaetan Bloom
"Mind, Myth & Magick is T.A. Waters' magnum opus, in which he brilliantly redefines the genre, blending pure mentalism and mental magic in equal measure. It is a mammoth, 800-page collection of 21 earlier books and the breadth of material on offer is staggering, it seems like every possible theme, presentation, trick and prop is explored and usually multiple times! Upon re-reading the whole book, two things really stood out to me: firstly, how inventive Waters was - you will regularly find yourself marvelling at how clever a method is, and there is a lot of material in this book that could have been marketed separately. Secondly, how smart and opinionated he was. His thoughts on mentalism and its performance permeate the book and demonstrate what a deep thinker and important voice he was. Essential reading, it's a cornerstone work that you simply must have in your library." - Mark Elsdon
"This book has provided me with years of enjoyment, ideas, and insight. You must own it to get the full impact. Among the 10 best in my library." - Marc Salem
Dreams of Mentalism Made Real!
Have you ever dreamed you could walk out on stage, ask the spectators to call out at random a multi-digit number, then turn to reveal a card pinned to your back in a position where you obviously can’t reach it - a card that states the precise number just stipulated?
Have you ever wished you could record for later verification - hours or days before the fact - the appearance of a perfect stranger who will sit in a specific seat in your audience?
Have you ever wanted to conjure up a live, sixteen-inch-tall demon in a candle-lit séance room, or divine a mentally chosen name with the aid of a mysteriously animated talisman that floats in a bottle of Atlantean seawater?
Have you ever desired to answer an audiences innermost concerns and questions without a whisper of chicanery - to tell people things about them that you couldn’t possibly know, just by touching some possession of theirs - to divine the astrological signs of total strangers without having the slightest knowledge of their birthdates?
These are but a few of the things that T.A. Waters has dreamed, then taken as challenges, and to which he has devised ingenious and practical solutions.
