Lunch Is Served

THE BLURB:
Sixty different routines compiled by Paul Romhany and TC
Tahoe, with additional routines by eighteen other magicians
from around the world, including Banacheck, Kenton Knepper,
Gerard, Richard Webster, Joe Givan, and Wayne Rogers.

This book is a compendium of creative approaches to a single
principle, a principle dedicated to changing the
characteristics of an object that has been signed by a
spectator. The trick "Out to Lunch" is generally treated,
appropriately, as a comedic trifle, but in this book you
will find a multitude of approaches, plots and presentation
that take the principle to places that you have perhaps not
explored or even imagined. Holes moves, signatures jump,
bills transport. Truly magical moments are crafted from this
workhorse of a principle, one that is exceptionally simple,
but deceptively so.

MY COMMENTS:
This is exactly what you'd expect: a compendium of routines
using the "Out to Lunch" principle. You can see that there
are several mentalists in the group that provide some mental
flavor to these ideas. There is also a CD included that
contains artwork for many of the routines, though they are
for the magic routines. This is by no means a complete or
encyclopedic collection, but with the dozens of routines
included, it's hard not to find something that you will
either use or inspire you.
