My favorite MAGIC TRICK books... (Beginner / Intermediate / Advanced)

➠ Subscribe here! goo.gl/WP2wyK
Want to know which magic books to buy? How to get started in magic for beginners? Or perhaps more advanced magic books to extend your knowledge? In this video I share my favorite magic trick books, which I have purchased over the years. I still have more back at home in Texas, but when I really had to narrow it down... THESE are the top 20 magic trick books I chose to pay to have shipped halfway around the world to where I am now. I discuss books that teach easy magic for beginners, as well as more advanced books, and additionally books on magic theory. It's really a great idea to learn some presentation & magic theory after you have have learned some magic tricks you can actually perform for people. Only then do the lessons on theory make more sense as you read. I mostly focus on card magic tricks, but I do also reference other magic categories as well such as coin magic and mentalism. See below for the list of books... not in the order I presented, but categorized!

📷 My Main Camera (fast autofocus): amzn.to/2MwhPEA

Extra equipment

🔵 Light Stand: amzn.to/3aawnoM
This light stand is kinda not sturdy enough because the light and soft box are so large; the whole thing can tip over easily. But it's what I use! 😆 Or you can perhaps find another light stand that is rated to hold more weight. Or just put something heavy (like sandbags) onto the bottom to lower the center of gravity.

I absolutely love and recommend "Close up card magic" by Harry Lorayne. It's a great starter book with really good effects. As an intermediate card book I really like "The Collected works of Alex Elmsley" I have volume 1, I know there is a volume 2 as well. Wow, there's some great stuff in there. My best "hidden gem" book, because I have no idea if it's still in print or available anywhere, is "The commercial magic of JC Wagner".

Hey Billy!! Glad to get a comment from you again. And so glad you enjoyed this video. I kinda figured it wouldn't get that many views.... but I had these books shipped all the way to me... and when I was about to open the box.... I figured it was too good an opportunity to pass up, and might as well record the process.... and also put amazon affiliate links... which 100% was an afterthought 😆 But yeah it was fun to share my favorite books that I've collected over the years. And it was fun testing out filming in this part of my flat using a new lighting set up. I was curios how it was turn out. I'm doing good! Ukraine is pretty much same as everywhere except we are required to wear masks while outside legally. Which is annoying. :) But pretty much life as normal for me since I'm only working from home and can't be fired because I don't have a boss! But I am sad for all those employees who lost their jobs during this time!! I hope your wife is staying safe also, working there on the front line. Probably everything will be fine though! :)

[@w1darr]

Hey, thanks for this video! You do a great job with all of your vids! If I am correct, you are from the US, but currently staying in Ucraine? I always wonder: I am German, and to me it looks as if the 'magicians' community is much more alive in the US than here in Europe - it starts off that even finding closeup matts is rather cumbersome - there are few opportunities. And it does not end with actual magician performances - I have been looking for magicians perform for 2 years now and hardly found anything. From your point of view - is magic more vivid in the US or am I just too inept to discover what we got? How is the situation in the Ucraine? Anyhow, thanks a lot for all your vids - I always enjoy it watching and they helped me quite a bit master the dullness of corona isolation ;) Thanks! PS: Are you still planning do document your workout routine?

[@kingrobert1st]

I am English and performed many years in Germany but found the close up market was very limited...not like in France or Spain. btw I make my own close up matts and props because the shops are also limited and expensive.

@@kingrobert1st HI, thanks for your reply! Now that you mention it - there are quite a few Spanish magicians I know - so perhaps I am just living in the wrong country oO Which cloth / tissue / ... do you use for your matts?

Thanks Michael! Yes I'm from the US. And living in Ukraine for the last 2 years. :) I quit my job back in the US and started backpacking around Europe and randomly ended up over here in Ukraine... where I'm trying to make a living from KZbin videos. :) Yes I felt like in the US there are more magic meet-ups. More people involved in this hobby/art form. Especially in Ukraine... there are really not many magicians here 😆. But I guess you can just google and see if there is an IBM (International Brotherhood of magicians) club in your country. For close-up pads... I saw some that looked decent by Murphy's Magic.

[@lukaszmichalak9985]

As a feedback, as i enjoy your content in general: Lack of preparation in the video is striking. I cannot stop the impression that that video is made ad hoc, quickly to fill up affilate links. Lack of good light management kills books presentation. And also statements like i "did not read it yet" - or - "i did not read it at all" make think that it is not thought through selection of books.

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Hey thanks for your feedback. Really the idea of amazon affiliate links was an afterthought, right before I started filming. And actually the whole video concept was an after thought as well! I just received the box of books from the mail after 5 weeks... and was about to open it... when I thought HEY... this could be a fun video, unboxing stuff.. and people get to see which books I was actually WILLING to pay even more money to have shipped to myself from around the world. It means the books that I will actively plan to use and think are valuable. So in a way I was sharing my choices and the time I spent previously researching on discussion boards which books are good to buy (even if I haven't read certain books). In fact, with YT I think it's nice to have some ad-hoc feeling videos which is what I was hoping to accomplish here... to be a little more casual and real-world. The lighting... I probably had too many lights on... and I was actually experimenting with filming in this location of the flat. So it is what it is. But I made sure viewers would be able to see the books, which I think is what counts. Choosing to ad affiliate links right before starting to film.... I think it's fair given I spent a good 15 hours total making this video. Editing takes a lot of time and selecting background music as well. So if I earn $3.00 after a month from affiliate links... I don't think it's the biggest scam in the world. 😆 And these are authentically the books I am using for myself. Not just listing here to make money.

[@johnjohn-cs9eu]

How do you keep your flat looking amazing ?

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Just kinda the way it is... and I avoid having too many small things out and about. Put stuff in drawers. And also I've only been renting this flat for half a year. Before that I was traveling with only a backpack. So I really was low on the "possessions" department, which helps! :)

It read: If you are the sort of person who can just go up to a group of people you have never met and start entertaining them you don't need to read any more.

Why Ukraine if not too personal?

[@alejava]

"There is no royal road to geometry." is often attributed to Euclid. And this is more than just a true statement. In fact, there is no royal to any demanding discipline, and magic is no exception. Nonetheless, a great name for a book. BTW, magic books are quite cheap, judging by the collection from the video. I buy mostly maths and engineering ones. Prices for those start at 100$. Fortunately, it is my employer who foots the bill.

[@alejava]

And then there comes an explanation for the "Ukraine issue". To quit software development (I totally get it, software dev is 99% very fucking boring) and try earn money from KZbin, one had to downshift. Ukraine is quite horrible, but Kiev is quite cheap and it's a big city.
