10 Ebooks
In early 2019, to celebrate our 10-year anniversary as a company, we launched an ambitious three-year project centered around our commitment to helping you become a better magician. Now, as this project comes to an end, we are commemorating this incredible endeavor by making the entire 10-ebook collection available in one set for the first time ever.
Astonishing Essays are small, attractive books that challenge how you think about and approach magic. We partnered with some of the finest thinkers in our industry to discuss the topics they are most passionate about.
There is no fluff in any of these essays. Each book was designed to be read in one sitting. They are meatier than a blog article but shorter than a full book. Yet, that has no bearing on the value of the content. Anyone who reads all 10 essays will undoubtedly walk away a better magician.
The response to our Astonishing Essays project was incredible. We are definitely bittersweet that it is coming to an end. But, we are thrilled to celebrate it with this special box set featuring all 10 Astonishing Essays. It’s essentially like a 10-step program to becoming the best possible magician you can be.
