I heard John Bannon recently say in a podcast that he would recommend that someone who wants to learn card magic to begin with Roberto Giobbi's Card College Light series of books, and then this video series. He said that most of the best card tricks of the last 50 years can be found in the ETMCM series. I believe Bannon is right.

I bought the first three videos as VHS tapes when they first came out. I had just gotten home from a short trip fairly late at night, when I found that the package had arrived in the mail. My ex went straight to bed, but I made the mistake of thinking that I would pop the first video in the VCR and watch just the first trick or two, and then I'd go to bed. Several hours later I was still awake because I just had to watch all three videos. I was exhausted the next day, and it was so worth it. When new volumes came out, I was concerned that the quality might go down. That concern proved to be unfounded. I think these are the best card magic videos ever produced. The choice of material is simply stellar, Ammar's teaching is clear and meticulous, and the over-the-shoulder “Super Practice Sessions” make everything much easier to learn.

Now, let me mention a couple of personal highlights on Vol. 5:

Virginia City Shuffle – Similar to Martin Lewis’s Sidewalk Shuffle but using cards that can be examined at the end. Three card monte type routines seem to always be enjoyed by laypeople who have heard of the “game.” This routine builds toward a very strong climax.

Another Quick Coincidence – A fun way to produce the four aces that allows your audience helper to be directly involved. The impact of this routine on laypeople is really strong, especially considering how quick and easy it is to do.

Henry Christ’s Fabulous Four Ace Trick – Another classic. A great table card routine that is structured so well, it’s a joy to perform.

Card on Ceiling – A reputation-making effect. Most pick-a-card tricks end when the selection is found. This effect can last for years as people continue to see their card stuck to the ceiling.

Out of Sight, Out of Mind – Dai Vernon’s impromptu classic seems like real mind reading.

To finish this review, if you are into card magic and don't have all nine DVDs in this series, I think you should get them ASAP! I really don't think you should buy any other magic resources until you get them. It might even be possible to make a living just with the magic on these DVDs. They are that good.

This series is the GOAT of card magic instructional videos.
