Robert
Its a great book offering lots of common sense advice to maximise the entertainment value from your magic. Lots of magicians would benefit from this book if only they would read it.

I've been doing magic for years... i've never purchased Maximum Entertainment... but i've always heard about it. When the audio book came out I immediately purchased it. I also purchased the book as well. This gives me the ability to read the book and then while driving to just start off where i left off reading. It's the perfect combination.
The audiobook is great. The book is read by Kent Axell and he does a magnificent job. He's lively and keeps your attention, none of that monotone stuff here.
The book is probably one of the most important books you will read if you're doing magic for real live people. So I would recommend the physical book and this as a companion. It'll serve you well.

Wow, I have a hard time finding time to read a book and when I do I generally don’t get far before I fall asleep.
So while I love books, it takes me a long while to finish them. This is the perfect solution! I will be listening to this book again and again.... it’s alrwady given me valuable advice.
Some books you can read front to back and it’s good.. but sometimes you find those one or two sentences that change your way of thinking and make it all worth while...
This book has more of those kind of life changing sentences than I can name.

This is more of a common sense book like Robert said. I was expecting something more along the lines of learning how to be an original genuine entertainer. You're not going to learn how to write your own scripts and patter with this book but very practical advise in this book for working magicians. Many points plus a 1 hour bonus interview which I found valuable.

Just listened to the book during walks over the last week or so. I've read the book cover to cover many times, but listening to it, I've picked up even more! The 2017 interview at the end is worth the price of the book! Do yourself, and your audiences a favor, and buy this audio book. Play it while driving/walking/exercising. So many "nuggets of gold" sprinkled throughout, this audio book is worth having on your phone to listen when you get the opportunity.
Lance
This book is a must have! The audio edition is well read, and includes an interview with the author. Well worth the purchase, even if you have the hardcover edition.
James
There is no topic that this book doesn't cover. the sheer amount of gold in this book is worth 10 times what it costs. I would suggest that everyone reads this book, I love how well thought out and expressed all the ideas are. It certainly makes it easy to consume. The fact that it comes in audiobook format only makes it that much better!
Mike
The book is amazing and FULL of lessons and advice that can make you a better performer. This audio version is an EASY way to get more from the book while doing other tasks for MAXIMUM efficiency. This book should be the building blocks for any performer that takes their craft seriously.
Barney
Best magic book I've ever read/heard. Covers a lot of stuff very well.
No tricks are included, but performing and preparation are as good as I've ever seen.
