Larry Jennings remarked that Aaron Fisher was the most promising young card magician he had seen in the past twenty years. John Thompson says, "The material in this book is top notch, and I guarantee it will enhance the repertoire of any serious student of card magic immensely." Praise for Aaron Fisher's work has spread through the inner circles of card magic for several years, resulting in a growing demand for information on the innovative techniques and card magic devised by Fisher; magic with which he has been impressing and amazing audiences of all calibers.

The Paper Engine begins with a thorough explanation of Aaron Fisher's handling of the half pass, a handling unlike any other in that there are no overt turns, sweeps, or squaring of the cards used to hide the sleight. Fisher's gravity half pass is done in the small motion of raising the deck from dealing position to the fingertips. There is no other perceptible action—yet the sleight is invisible from all sides. The details of this one move have been wondered about and coveted for years.

Equally innovative are Fisher's approaches to the bluff pass, diminishing lift sequence, multiple shift, switches and controls. And last but not least is his one-handed method for causing a card to pop face up suddenly from the center of a face-down pack.

The Paper Engine, though, is much more than a collection of technical innovation. Supporting the sleights are nineteen excellent and powerful tricks that rely on them. These are not constructions cobbled together to illustrate how the sleights might be applied. The tricks are all audience-tried-and-tested pieces of magical entertainment, drawn from Aaron Fisher's professional repertoire. And all sleights and tricks are supplemented with observations on presentation, practicality, psychology, and theatrical theory, expressed with a clarity and candor that will surprise readers.

The Paper Engine is Aaron Fisher's first book, and for it he has chosen only what he considers his top card material, to which he has added two exceptional tricks by Gordon Bean that use his techniques. Aaron and his co-author John Lovick have striven to provide a text that teaches clearly and succinctly on many levels. They are aided in this by Damon Webster who supplies 160 state-of-the-art photos. The result is a work that, rather than spinning its wheels in well-worn ruts, drives the craft of card magic forward into the future.

"Before reading this book I was looking to find something that can teach me more card sleights and unique tricks and that are impromptu where I can just do a trick with a normal pack of cards. This book was exactly what I needed

Truth is, I never buy books. I am more of a person that learns from watching DVDs. However, since this book got so many great reviews and everyone has just been talking about the Gravity Half Pass I decided to go for it and I did not regret it. " -- Matt Tan

"It taught me how vital it was to eliminate tension from my sleights and to execute them with a soft yet consistent touch on those elusive pressure points. By showing me how to do so, the Paper Engine has improved my card work immeasurably. " -- Wayne C.

They are not hard to learn. Simply because he teaches them very well. That being said almost every card trick is difficult to master because mastering a card trick means so much more than just knowing how it is done. The book will give you some great insight into each trick or sleight and (what no youtube tutorial will give you) the REASONS for why you are doing the slights and tricks the way he teaches.

Why anyone would rather learn from amateurs for free, what they can learn from masters for only a few dollars per trick, and simultaneously support the art of magic is beyond me.
