Absolute Magic by Derren Brown
Following the success of Pure Effect， Derren Brown offers a detailed study of the most difficult task facing any close-up magician: how to make magic convincing.
This is a rich and witty journey through the thinking of Britain's foremost current magical performer， whose television specials have revolutionised mentalism and drawn massive viewing figures.
Absolute Magic offers the profoundest thinking， expressed in the most memorable and vivid prose， and is a necessary modern classic for the magician or mentalist
striving to make his performances more powerful. This is a manifesto for performing excellence， not a mere collection of routines. But those who study it carefully will find much practical information， not only on close up magic (Derren's emotion packed presentation for the floating ring， for example) and mentalism， but also Derren's unique approach to theatrical pick-pocketing.
Originally privately published by the author， Absolute Magic， was only available directly from Derren via his password protected website. Those fortunate few who were able to negotiate the website and place their order have cherished their copies. With his performing career no longer affording him the luxury of filling orders， he has authorized its publication and distribution by H & R Magic Books. We are pleased to announce that the book is now available.
"If the author's previous book， Pure Effect， was a challenge to the status quo of close-up magic， then Absolute Magic is an outright call to arms he wants not only to alter the way we do our art and work， but he wants to transform the way we think and feel about it…
Mr， Brown also possesses considerable experience with pick-pocketing， a subject he explores in some technical as well as theatrical depth. There is some excellent instruction here this is some of the most pragmatic contents of the book， which still serves as a vehicle for Mr. Brown's thoughtful consideration of artistic issues."
Jamy Ian Swiss in Genii Magazine March 2000
Here is an excerpt from the book， cited in the Genii review， as characteristic of its contents:
"Have the courage to think from this starting-point， and to leave ninety percent of your repertoire behind you. Then go out to perform fresh and eager to improve even more， and from the moment you arrive， invent and walk your own prestige. Carry it around with you with the quiet nature of the man confident in his authority. Communicate it thoroughly and subtly before any magic begins.
'You are not a juggler， nor a mere amuser of the middle-classes: you are a magician. The main task of that wonderful job is to lift people out of themselves. You are a connection to a wondrous world， and if you forget that and just become a mingling trickster， then you are undercutting yourself， and denying yourself the shiver of an unrivalled type of job satisfaction. In keeping with our model， it is vital that you transport people: that in some sensitive way you challenge the comfort of the social context. In places where the posh gather and talk about silly things， you must gradually， softly， sound a bass note that rumbles. You act with caution， and you pace the mood of the event (and you don't cloud that judgment by swigging too much of the Champagne yourself)， but you remember that you are there to create magic and you bide your time."
Warning: This is not a book for the casual reader nor one who is easily offended!

Reviews for "Target Frog Qitch: The Key to Understanding Human Evolution?"
1. Sarah - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with "Target Frog Witch". The plot was confusing and hard to follow, and the characters were poorly developed. I found myself struggling to connect with any of them and didn't care what happened to them by the end of the book. The writing style also didn't click with me, as it felt disjointed and lacked proper pacing. Overall, it was a struggle to get through this book, and I wouldn't recommend it to others.
2. Mike - 1 star - I have to say that "Target Frog Witch" was one of the worst books I've ever read. The concept seemed interesting, but the execution was terribly done. The narrative was convoluted, with random jumps in time and place that left me confused and frustrated. The dialogue was stilted and unnatural, making it difficult to fully immerse myself in the story. I felt no emotional connection to any of the characters, and there were several loose ends left unresolved by the end. Save yourself the trouble and skip this book.
3. Emily - 2 stars - I was really looking forward to "Target Frog Witch" based on the intriguing synopsis, but it fell flat for me. The pacing was incredibly slow, and the story seemed to drag on without much happening. The writing style was also overly descriptive, to the point where it felt like unnecessary filler. The main character lacked depth, and I couldn't sympathize with their struggles. Overall, I felt bored and disconnected throughout the entire book, and it didn't live up to my expectations.
