Not too impressed with this, which is surprising, considering how VanishingInc is normally so reliable.First, the descriptions of one of the "tricks" is misleading. It's not actually a LIE DETECTOR, which was what I was hoping it would be, since I have a routine already based on this for closeup and I would be able to SUPER-SIZE it and do on stage. But - no. Only detects if the final statement is a lie or not.Secondly the download didn't have chapters or even a PDF explaining that at "such-and-such" a time, the FORTUNE TELLER information would be found. This meant a lot of searching.Third, there's a really, really cute idea that is a BONUS routine. EXCEPT the explanation of how to build it is horrible. Mr. Michaels basically starts to explain it and then just wimps out by saying things like, "You'll figure it out", and "It's just some arts and crafts".Perhaps if he hadn't wasted a LOT of time explaining (multiple times) how to f*rce a card, he would have had the time and energy to explain it.And, quite frankly I could NOT find any magnets that would work, so knowing where he got his would have been really helpful.
