About the book!

Four years ago Rory posted an original trick every day on Instagram for 298 days, and then he landed a job working for Dynamo and moved to London. He's since worked on ITV1's The Next Great Magician, then an E4 Troy magic special, a massive magic show in China then another primetime ITV show, and a ton more across the planet - even one show on ice! Now he's written a book - because he needs the money.

“This book is utterly utterly UTTERLY brilliant. Buy it, it is wonderful.” - Andy Nyman

“Rory has published the SECRETS to creating magic. Get ready to have your creativity sparked!” - Justin Flom

“Expect to be immediately inspired. Every page seems to have something so clever you will wish the idea was yours.” - Franco Pascali
