Jim Short, seasoned worker I have arthritis and essential tremor, but I still want to perform strong magic. I'm always on the lookout for things that don't require me to deal out 21 cards into 3 piles multiple times, and things that look like, well, magic. I recently ran across Sub Rosa by Ariel Frailich. It ticks all the boxes for me. I can handle the technical aspects easily despite my issues, and the technique will fool even the most eagle-eyed spectator. The misdirection is almost built in. Ariel doesn't just give you the concept, though. He gives you some great routines to get started. However, even though these routines are worth doing, I would recommend using them as a jumping-off point to develop your own material. Sub Rosa is so versatile that you'll be coming up with card, coin, mental, and children's magic (and more!) of your own in no time. Paul Pacific, professional mentalist: With Sub Rosa Ariel has taken an organic and versatile utility move and applied it to many original effects. The presentations are very well thought out and can be used exactly as written. There is something for every student of magic in this book. Bravo! Jim Byrnes, seasoned worker Great, easy-to-use utility move. Worthwhile investment, especially if you're looking to do less gymnastic sleights to accomplish truly professional magic. It's a secret because if everyone knew great magic could be done this easily we would be out of business. Well done.
