240 NEW routines & 416 Jam-packed pages
Cloth-Covered Saddle-Stitched hardback.

Card Foolers is a massive book. 240 NEW (or previously-unpublished) powerful routines you can do. Yes, routines you can do; and use. Dozens of the routines are sleight-free or very easy and the rest use standard sleights. There are NO full-deck set-ups, NO memorised deck effects and NO routines using passes, false deals and other heavy sleights. Paul Gordon believes this truly is his very best work. It's genuinely full of foolers. No padding. No spaces. No filler. And, there's a coin trick, a Himber Ring idea and a few number/matrix and anagram effects! Oh, (and buyer beware) and a handful of naughty adult tricks.

Paul writes in an easy to-read style. Most tricks are described in just one page and often less than that. Short descriptions but detailed and clear descriptions. And, as in Paul's last book Card Startlers, the promo video/trailer shows Paul demonstrating 23 of the effects without any suspicious editing. WYSIWYG. Card Foolers contains a detailed sleights section but a certain basic knowledge of card magic (by you) is required. But, even if you know little about card magic, there's much here to keep you busy. After all, 240 powerful foolers is a heck of a lot of magic in one book. Paul has always 'guaranteed' (if you can) that each new book is better than the last. Well, his last book Card Startlers got raves. Paul believes Card Foolers is even better.

The best response we've ever had from a laymen audience at Penguin Live was that from Paul Gordon performing at the bar during his Penguin Live Lecture."

"Paul Gordon is a modern master of close-up magic. His extensive knowledge and ability to create visual and stunning routines is unmatched in the world. He is one of the best teachers I've seen with cards, and I'm always inspired by his creativity. I've been collecting his magic for years, and he always motivates me to become a better magician. I recommend Paul Gordon's extraordinary tutorials to all of our students at The Magic and Mystery school. His plots, presentations and direct methods are fine examples of modern card magic entertainment."

"Paul Gordon is a most unusual Magician. Not only does he possess great skill and ability but has a dynamic style and personality which can win over the most critical audience. He leaves audiences speechless with amazement, and exhausted from laughter. You don't see that very often."

"Paul Gordon's lecture was full of truly practical and effective material that caught the attention of even those who are not into cards. Every single piece is worthy of study, great impact with a minimum of effect and many wonderful ungimmicked solutions. Very inspiring."

"It is rare to see a magician who can entertain an audience that much with just a deck of cards. But Paul Gordon is one of them! His shows are as funny as the magic he performs is strong. Paul perfectly knows what the spectators enjoy and deliver it to them with great humor and killer effects."
- Boris Wild

"I always love watching Paul Gordon perform. He has such great energy and really knows how to excite a crowd with just a deck of cards...which is not simple to do, He's got a special gift of being able to perform some real sleight of hand while maintaining constant entertainment and comedy throughout. No easy feat with just an ordinary deck of cards!"
- Richard Sanders

"Paul Gordon held some fifty people enthralled as he demonstrated some items from his books. His command is phenomenal. With his showmanship and personality power he makes card tricks entertaining and meaningful. He has them hanging onto his every word; not just for a few minutes but for an hour or so! Watch Paul Gordon perform to see what proper card magic looks like and the response it gets."
- Walt Lees

"Paul Gordon is a great performer and his effects are straight to the point. Short and sweet with his personality overshining and guiding you through his magic. So much fun to watch."
- J.C Wagner

"Lectures don't get much more entertaining or satisfying than this! It wasn't just a lecture of great, practical material, it was also a lesson in how to present a magic lecture. Every performance was polished and sure-footed; every explanation clear and well-rehearsed without stumbles or fumbles. Throughout, Paul maintained the energy, pace, fun, and enthusiasm that characterize his approach to magic. "
