Destroyers is the critically-acclaimed bestselling book of Troy Hooser’s greatest coin and card work. Authored by Joshua Jay, this neo-classic hardcover book helped shape a generation of close-up magic and is now available in a new expanded version.
"Destroyers is filled with killer magic that is both audience tested and practical. Learning Troy's material is well worth your time and investment" Bob Kohler
You will learn over a dozen coin routines that require no table, how to levitate a small mask, how to produce a bottle from nowhere, and even a one-of-a-kind effect where a padlock is produced from two rubber bands.
In total, you’ll take a whirlwind tour through 40 sensational close-up routines and sleights—each of which are explained with thoughtful prose and distinctive illustrations. This special updated edition also features seven additional routines, bonus commentary, and dozens of new illustrations.
Destroyers features a lifetime’s worth of secrets and the theory behind him. It is your chance to discover why Troy Hooser is one of the most cherished underground magicians in the world. His magic has not only captured the imaginations of the magic industry’s thought leaders, but wreaks havoc on the logic of spectators.
Put simply, these tricks are destroyers.
