Closing Words
----------------------------------

I will point out that the book does not attempt to teach you how to handle cards, but focuses on the many pathways that are made possible with the Black Tiger decks. Uses for the various cards are explored including ideas and presentations for mental effects, bizzare tricks and ideas that can make a standard trick using what appears to be a normal deck become a real reputation maker. We are also treated with the history of the deck and tips on caring for these very special cards.

The author explores issues that might arise from using a deck of black cards and finds new and interesting ways to exploit such situations. While I didn't agree with everything I read, I did find plenty of useful information that warrants keeping this book in my library for future reference and I think you will too. If you own a Black Tiger Deck or are thinking about purchasing one, this book is a must have and I highly recommend you pick one up.
