REVIEW

The three "Inner Secrets of Card Magic" books are the greatest collections of Dai Vernon's creations and effects. L&L Publishing has reprinted these great books under one book, "Dai Vernon's Inner Card Trilogy." One of the most famous effects found in this book is Dai Vernon's "Twisting the Aces." It only requires four Aces to do. The magician freely shows the Aces to the spectator. However, with a simple twist of the cards, one ace is found to have turned over. When the magician twists the cards again, the previous Ace turns face down, and another Ace is now face up. This is done another two more times until the magician has made all the Aces to turn face up. The following is a list of effects that can be found in this book.
